"Velvet Ring" - Big Thief
- Chilled in the kitchen
- of a city
- tomb
- The light would flicker
- like a violent
- womb
- The night was thicker
- than a smoky
- fume
- Ben, he loved her
- like he loved no
- one
- The way she laughed
- and held a smoking
- gun
- The way she always said
- "What's done is
- done"
- And he is not the only
- one
- Yours is thicker
- than a velvet
- ring
- Yours is thicker
- than a velvet
- ring
- A victim here with a
- sharp, sharp
- blade
- And Ben, he knew how
- she was getting
- paid
- Her water broke,
- and they would
- have to
- wait
- And when he knew
- that she was
- fooling
- He faced the mirror
- to avoid the
- thing
- We're out of money,
- and we've sold the
- bling
- And I
- just wanna
- take you home
- I just wanna take you home
- Yours is thicker
- than a velvet
- ring
- Yours is thicker
- than a velvet
- ring
