Hellacopters - Veronica Lake Lyrics

You know she stays right out of reach
Keeps that position, plays the game
I'd like to think
I quit playing
But the dice roll on
And if the snake eyes shine
I'll chase down the alley's dark
All over again
The bent angels bend my neck
And eventually my mind
My time is short
Why do I spend so much time searching for...
So I take mistakes in stride
I make the stakes go high
Watch this shrinking heart
Break and mend again
And I bet, if I could bet it all
I probably would watch the money go
Until I'm down again
The bent angels bend my neck
And eventually my mind
My time is short
Why do I spend so much time
Searching for Veronica Lake?
The bent angels bend my neck
And eventually my mind
My time is short
Why do I spend so much time
Searching for Veronica Lake?
Where are the mystery girls
Who start a riot with their smiles?
Make you go a mile
For another fight
But the dice roll on
And if the snake eyes shine
I'll chase down the alleys dark
All over again
The bent angels bend my neck
And eventually my mind
My time is short
Why do I spend so much time
Searching for Veronica Lake?
Veronica Lake
Oh, yeah
