Singing Joy to the World - Fruit Bats

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

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

He died a little bit each time the night came in

And the stars fell over Michigan

'Cause held 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 3AM in the empty parking lot

They lay together under the burnt out stars

She never loved him back

I 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
