Henry Jamison - Gloria Lyrics

Me and my cousin were walking one day
by the Dairy Queen drive-thru down by the highway
and he found some flowers, a busted bouquet
and he put a hydrangea in his hair

Some kids at the Dairy Queen were calling him gay
and then to my surprise I knew just what to say
I said, ""boys, if you're looking for your worthiness,
it's already there.""

Gloria
no more nightmares of a lack of love
no need to win the race to face your father

Me and my cousin were at the arcade
in a fathom of blood, we were constantly slain
and we watched the progress of our three-letter names
till we stumbled outside to the night air

And there was a man, with a coat and a cane
he was mumbling things about the world gone insane
He said, ""boys, if you're looking for your innocence,
well it's already there.""

Gloria
no more nightmares of a lack of love
no need to win the race to face your father
