Blue Angel

Squirrel Nut Zippers

Your momma never told you



How you were 'sposed to treat a girl.



Your poppa never told you and



Now you're all alone out in the world.



Sirens are streaming



Inside the winding sheets are pale.



Devils are dreaming



Dreaming of the blue angel.




Now I lay me down to sleep



But troubled dreams are all I find.



Pray the Lord my soul to keep



Pray so I won't lose my mind.




Sirens are screaming



On wings tonight, I'll soon set sail.



Devils are dreaming



Dreaming of a blue angel.




Your momma's going to take it hard



You always were your momma's boy.



Your laying in the graveyard



Now you're not your momma's joy.




Streetlights come streaming



I'll bat an eye and cast my spell.



Devils are dreaming



Dreaming of a blue angel.
