   Your lungs fill up with concrete
  A voice is all you can hear
  Red lips and a screwdriver
  Wrapped around some mink-clad smear
  And you know that she's a diamond
  In this damned juke box hell
  'Cause fools gold only fools fools
  In two-bit hotels.
  But she's cooler than all that
  She's a real high-class cat
  She's the queen of the last dance rodeo.
  
  But under the gas lamp
  The air is thick and velveteen
  Your bones fill up with hunger
  Your heart filled with longing
  You're no longer human
  You're an insatiable ho.
  You wanna bury your face forever
  In the navel of her soul
  'Cause you know ...
  
  All you need is a heart to call home
  All you need is a heart to call home
  That's all.
  
  Light bulbs and nylons
  A nd plastic chandeliers
  Objects are only objects
  They can't feel when you're near
  And tangerine lips
  And lily-white breasts
  These things are eternal
  Inside them humanity rests
  The skin is like a seashell
  You listen to the soul
  Like an old-time radio show.
  But under the gas lamp
  The air is thick and velveteen
  Your bones fill up with hunger
  Your heart filled with longing
  You're no longer human
  You're an insatiable ho.
  You wanna bury your face forever
  In the navel of her soul
  'Cause you know ...
  
  All you need is a heart to call home
  All you need is a heart to call home
  That's all.
  
  But don't wander too far
  My one constant star
  Darkness exists, except where you are
  My feet are filled with wandering
  They follow your own
  'Cause everywhere you are feels like home.
  
  So search all you miners
  You hunters of dreams
  Look in the alleyways
  For what you know is not what it seems
  And fame, all you maidens, It don't exist too long
  But at least look behind you
  And see your own shadow's gone
  Don't you know it's the last-dance rodeo
  You gotta find yourself a cowboy
  Or someone to keep you warm when it snows.
  
  But under the gas lamp
  The air is thick and velveteen
  Your bones fill up with hunger
  Your heart filled with longing
  You're no longer human
  You're an insatiable ho.
  You wanna bury your face forever
  In the navel of her soul
  'Cause you know ...
  
  All you need is a heart to call home
  All you need is a heart to call home
  That's all.
