Pantyhose

by TV Girl

on The TV Girl Box Set (2021), French Exit (2014)

[Verse 1]
Boys march into war
To certain defeat
They were younger than me

Guns poke through the trees
Death on a limb
They were aiming at him

[Hook 1]
And when the bullets came, he didn't duck

He wrapped her pantyhose around his neck

And he could feel the magic working
Keeping him from harm
Away to some place mystical and warm
His lucky charm

[Verse 2]
He got caught
No cover at all
He'd breath in her scent
Not even a scratch

He didn't die
When he stepped on a mine
They were violet and soft
It didn't go off

[Hook 2]
And when her letter came he didn't cry

He wrapped her pantyhose around his eyes

And he could feel the magic working
Keeping him from harm
Even though she didn't love him any more

Can't kill a lucky charm
