Rilo Kiley Lyrics
"Close Call"

She was born on a Brighton pier to
a gypsy mother and a bucket of tears.
Her good looks coulda sailed a ship,
but her will alone coulda sunk it.

Funny thing about money for sex--
you might get rich,
but you'll die by it.

It's gonna be a close call.
Gonna be a close call

Tell me now what would you do
hanging back with the brutes?
Hustlin', a pickpocket--
that's no way to get rich.

It's gonna be a close call.
Gonna be a close call
Gonna be a close call
Gonna be a close call

Ooh ooh ooh ohh, ahh ahh (etc)

Business woman with good sense--
if you live at all, you're gonna die by it.
Funny thing about money for sex,
you might get rich, but then...

it's gonna be a close call.
Gonna be a close call
Gonna be a close call
Gonna be a close call

Ooh ooh ooh ohh, ahh ahh (etc)
