"Bayou Bleus" lyrics
"Bayou Bleus"
The tail of winter shows no mercy
Taking it to the lower ground
Crossing that long bridge in the darkness
Just let the music take you down
To the bayou bleus and their secret
The bayou bleus that tell it all
There's a mystery in the moment
There's a message in their call
Puberty rides the wind like an angel
Silently screaming in the dark
The beads are thrown from the balcony
The breasts are bare to play the part
And under the neon the two figures
Stand looking out over the crowd
Once their bodies held them prisoner
Now their bodies make them proud
The bayou bleus hold a secret
The bayou bleus tell it all
They listened to their heart's message
That dealt them a two-sided card
In the midst of it all the lost limo
Waits quietly down the street
Faceless masks taunt the visitors
As they move to the Big Easy beat
The bayou bleus keep the secret
The bayou bleus tell it all
There's a mystery in the moment
There's a message in their call
Bayou Bleus
Bayou Bleus
