Beauty lives in a one horse town
Goes around reading Ezra Pound
She don't understand what it means
The Beast he lives in a cheap motel
Got a tattoo of the gates of hell
And a scar that says LOVE on his right hand.
Love has found it's way to the least of the least
Love has found Beauty and her Beast
The Beast he works at the filling station
Until he gets a probation violation
Got a strong appetite for smoking weed.
Beauty works right next door
She's a clerk at the convenience store
Making change and hanging chickens on the rotisserrie
Love finds it's way to the least of the least
Love has found Beauty and her Beast.
Late at night when no one can see
They hold one another so tenderly
Love is right in this world gone wrong
For just a little while they both belong.
The Beast he went back to jail
Like ain't no fairy tale
It's just one big moveable feast
Beauty goes back to the store
Dropping chickens on the floor
The slide right through her hands like they've been greased.
Love flies away like a bird released
Love had flown for Beauty and her Beast.
Love flies away like a bird released
Love had flown for Beauty and her Beast.
