Flashing lights

 A weary traveler seeks to find
 a place to lay his head
 A distant light, the neon kind
 Flashes in the red

 He heads towards the light
 There to find a place to sleep
 It's a motel, he spends the night
 Hoping dreams will take him deep

 When morning comes he'll grab a bite
 and hit the open road
 But when morning came he's not in sight
 A mystery to decode

 He'd fallen victim to a femme fatale
 Who had seduced him in the night
 She was driving his car now, what a gal
 Speeding down the road in the sunlight

 But in the rearview mirror were flashing lights
 The cops were on her tail
 She pulls over, shows her pearly whites
 But now she's going to jail!
