Houston Romance Songtext
von I See Hawks in L.A.

Exchanged insults, traded blows
And the wounds don′t even show
You're self-reliant, a perfect tyrant
I guess I always knew you′d never be my fire-hydrant

Well I knew this would end up like it did
At least we didn't have a kid
I'm leaving behind this gray infested swamp
With its poisonous water snakes and it′s toxic golf course lakes

Corpus Christi
Texas City
It′s not the humidity, it's the humanity
It′s not the insensitivity, it's the insanity
Corpus Christi, Texas City


I remember wishing I was dead
Like the peanut shells on the floor of the Ruby Red′s
A stranger in a strange land
A beautiful girl tugging on my hand
Trying in vain to drain the water off my brain

SOLO

A couple of hundred meals
And this is how it feels
Baylor and Rice and everything nice
Guess I'll think about her maybe once or twice

Texas Cityyyyyyyy

Say goodbye to U-totem′s, say goodbye to Kroger
Gonna fly the coup before I get much older
Cause I don't like clams and I don't like oysters
I don′t like the locals when I′m drunk and boisterous
I don't like the Astros and the Oilers are gone
Not even a reason to sing this song
About a town where you broke my heart
It′s time for a brand new start
Texas City, Corpus Christi, Goodbye X 3
I'm going back to California, back to California, Goodbye
