“Now Cinderella don’t you go to sleep…Its such a bitter form of refuge…” Man, I got stuck on this tune yesterday and it’s still hanging in my head. Really liking it. Band called The Killers.
The Killers: Dustland Fairytale
Lyrics to “Dustland Fairytale”
Dustland fairytale beginin
Just another white trash
County kiss
Sixty one
Long brown hair and foolish eyes
Look just like you’d want him to
Kind of slick chrome american prince
A blue jean serenade
Moon river what’d you do to be
But i don’t believe you
Some Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil warping up his hands
Hes getting ready for the show down
I saw the minute that i turn away
I got my money on a pond tonight
Change came in disguised of revelation
Set his soul on fire
She said she’d always knew he’d come around
And the decades disappear like sinking
Ships we persevere god gives us hope
But we still fear
We don’t know
The mind is poison castle in the sky
Sit stranded vandalized
The draw bridge is closing
Some Cinderella in a party dress but
She was looking for a night gown
I saw the devil warping up his hands
Hes getting ready for the show down
I saw the ending were they turned the page
I threw my money and i ran away
Strait to the vally of the great divide
And were the dreams roll high
And were the wind dont blow
Out here the good girls die
And the sky wont snow
Out here the bird don’t sing
Out here the field don’t grow
Out here the bell don’t ring
Out here the bell don’t ring
Out here the good girls die
Now cinderella don’t you go to sleep
Its such a bitter form of refuge
Ahh don’t you know the kingdoms under siege
And everybody needs you
Is there still magic in the midnight sun
Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
In the of the cadence in the young mans eyes
And were the dreams roll high

Unfortunately she apparently now plans to hate me, doesn’t want him to have anything to do with me which I can understand from her standpoint. No telling what he’s said to her, nothing has really happened other than we share much in common, had some great laughs.
I’d not heard or seen them live. It was through one of DMan’s band pals we had the treat to finally hear and experience them, live. “R.” had seen them while on a trip to Houston. I was impressed with them, the night of our party there were just three of the band members present, but those three guys made some great sound. Apparently the size and number in the band varies depending on venue and availability.
