Fruit Bats - Singing Joy to the World lyrics

Well, he got lonely every
Time the cantina lights
Came up on the Indian Casino Queen
'Cause he'd loved her from the
Time she'd been the waitress
At the Mexican place where he'd left his keys

And she'd been there smiling at
The lost and found
Then he took her to see Three Dog Night
They were playing at the fairgrounds
Holding hands, singing "Joy to the World"

She was way too young but he did not care
He was all right with cashing in
A few fine moments before his
Broken heart kicked in

Well, he died a little bit each
Time the night came in
And the stars fell over Michigan
'Cause he'd loved her at the bar
When he saw her dancing to
"I Could Never Take the Place of your Man"

Then he'd come over to his usual spot
Soon they were making out at 3 AM
In the empty parking lot
They lay together under the burnt-out stars

And she never loved him back
It wasn't even close
But he was fine to just pretend
That it was never gonna end
And it was worth it just to know
A little warmth before the snow
