Tracy Lyrics by Ernie Botts + the Miseries

The Art of Fading Thought

2003

[Verse]
The officer said, "Get out of the car."
And then he smashed up her guitar
He's handcuffing her so she has to bend over
This'll teach you not to wear a bra
This'll teach you to question our laws
He asks her, "Don't you cry?," and it's over
[Chorus]
And Tracy never trusted anyone in blue
She calls her mom up and she says I'm leaving soon
Steps out on the highway, crushing tight her eyes
This is the last time that these lights will leave me blind
[Verse]
She collapsеs at home, and the kids ask her
"Whеn are we gonna get dinner?"
She says, "Your dad would get food if he were here."
Shot Don six times in the back
As he was bein' wrapped in the flag
They set him on fire over the ocean
[Chorus]
And Tracy never trusted anyone in blue
She calls her mom up and she says I'm leaving soon
Steps out on the highway, crushing tight her eyes
This is the last time that these lights will leave me blind
[Bridge]
Tracy cries out
Coat hanger makes her bleed
He says, "It's over now
Cry, please, cry"
[Chorus]
And Tracy never trusted anyone in blue
She calls her mom up and she says I'm leaving soon
Steps out on the highway, crushing tight her eyes
This is the last time that these lights will leave me blind
[Verse]
Officer Scott picks through the mess
Drops whats left of her face and sweats
I could swear that she was my daughter
The flashing lights surround her at last
Scott screams, "I can't see, please get back!"
But the blinding light only draws closer
[Chorus]
And Tracy never trusted anyone in blue
She calls her mom up and she says I'm leaving soon
Steps out on the highway, crushing tight her eyes
This is the last time that these lights will leave me blind
[Outro]
The officer said, "Get out of the car."
And then he smashed up her guitar
He's handcuffing her so she has to bend over
