Curves & Nerves The Hold Steady

You know the call came in on a princess phone on the patio
She said: hey if that's Geppetto
Tell that puppeteer I'm not here yet
Tell him that I ain't done with my beers yet
Tell him that I'm up in Massachussetts
If he wants to buy me some I'll be in the kitchenette
Making meals out of marzipan
Making love to the black and tans
Crushing butts in a coffee can
When the crowd went wild
We were under the stands
Mouths and hands, baby
Hands and mouths
So many shows where nobody comes out

Where were you when the call came in?
I was on a rocky mountain freedom binge
With all the living members of the cityscape skins
You and me and gideon
Holly went to Hollywood
It looked nothing like she thought it would
She didn't get to the part with the studios
She went straight to video
She did a movie called "North Dallas Foursome"
There was agony and ecstasy and the cheerleaders got gruesome
She did a movie called "Revenge of the Pervs"
Yeah there were screams and jeans and curves and nerves
