the wave pictures - pool hall lyrics

a line of cars pulls up before the hotel
your hands grip tight around the white slab of a telephone
saying “we will pay” as a western plays
on a little tv in the corner

sequins on the dress of the woman leaning on your neck
saying “you look wonderful, i’ve never seen you look better”
sequins on the dress of the woman leaning on your neck
saying “you really are my guy”

[chorus]
have you heard
they’re closing down the pool hall
have you heard
they’re turning it into flats
have you heard
they’re closing down the pool hall
and there’s
nothing that you can do about that

a spanish guitar leant up in the corner
you’ve been to the river to talk to your brother
you’ve sung minor key songs with your parents’ friends
sugar in the shaker, ice in the cola
in the booth of the beautiful diner
girls in turquoise swish through the corridor
eating popcorn ‘til they find you in the cinema
full to the brim with nerves
and now you’re hiding in a telephone booth
[chorus]
have you heard
they’re closing down the pool hall
have you heard
they’re turning it into flats
have you heard
they’re closing down the pool hall
and there’s
nothing that you can do about that

this is just a whisper, a whisper on high
the snap of your polka+dot shirt like the hulk can really burn your tie
your guitar’s smashed to ribbons on the dressing room floor
i think i’ve heard this little tale before

[chorus]
did you know
they’re closing down the pool hall
did you know
they’re turning it into flats
did you know
they’re closing down the pool hall
and there’s
nothing that you can do about that
