The Crystal Skull

I make reservations at the Crystal Skull for me...

For me, and Scarlet, and a a friend of hers

I'm not gonna lie to you it only gets worse

She gets so disconnected when her glass is too full

And Scarlet gets bombed

And Scarlet gets high and she breaks into song

Scarlet gets loud, Scarlet gets lost

And the gloves come off

And she's like this every night...

Down at the Crystal Skull

The Crystal Skull is open all night

I think I was ready for a quiet night...

A quiet night of talking we ended up...

Ended up, ended up downtown

'Cause Scarlet's thirsty inside

She's a fisherman who drains the ocean first...

And then decides

And Scarlet gets bombed

And Scarlet gets high and she breaks into song

Scarlet gets loud, Scarlet gets angry

And Scarlet is so tired...

She's been swimming for awhile...

Nobody reaches shore riding the crimson tide

Down at the Crystal Skull...

The Crystal Skull

The Crystal Skull is open all night...

Is open all night

And Scarlet's ready to go out tonight

Go out tonight

Scarlet's ready to go out...

Tonight

Scarlet's ready to go out...

Tonight
