The Dambuilders - Shrine Lyrics

She doesn't speak much English
But she tells me all her favorite bands
There's not too much to talk about
Wonder if she understands

I know she likes L7
And I think that she likes me
When she rolls her stockings past the knee
We're talking rock and roll...

And now it seems like yesterday
I met her in a smoky club
If you get drunk and fall behind
You know that I will put you up

And if I learned the language
She could tell me all her dreams
I know exactly what she means

And I could fall so easily
Because her hair is colored red
I asked her if she'll dye mine too
She tells me it's already dead

And I knew that if I stayed with her
I'd lose track of all time
Till I light a candle to the shrine
Call it rock and roll
