[Verse 1]
Dented bodies, broken souls
Wilted roses, hearts grown cold
Unhappy endings and shattered dreams
And acres of the nearly real thing
[Verse 2]
Where's the candlelight? Where're the smiles?
Man, this place goes on for miles
There's heaps and heaps of wedding rings
Equal space for tramps and kings
[Chorus]
There's no Doberman dog or security guard
At the love junkyard
Open twenty-four hours, come as you are
To the love junkyard
[Verse 3]
Tanks of teardrops shed in vain
Mix it with the pouring rain
And promises gone up in smoke
And freight cars full of hurt and hope
[Chorus]
There's no doberman dog or security guard
At the love junkyard
Open twenty-four hours, come as you are
To the love junkyard
[Bridge]
Tiny trysts and grand affairs
There's no more use for teddy bears
The time for pretty words has passed
So fly the flag of love half mast
At the love junkyard
Hoo, hoo, ooh
There's heaps and heaps of wedding rings
Equal space for tramps and kings
And promises gone up in smoke
And freight cars full of hurt and hope
[Chorus]
There's no doberman dog or security guard
At the love junkyard
Open twenty-four hours, bring your broken heart
To the love junkyard
[Outro]
To the love junkyard
Come as you are
To the love junkyard
