|
Here out past the tracks where the drunks collapse |
|
Old suckers can score on the indigent whores. |
|
Way after the last laugh has swollen itself shut |
|
When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks. |
|
The elegant whores are waiting inside |
|
One hundred dollars can buy you no time. |
|
The teasing diseasing the carnival crowd |
|
Is waiting to blow out the rest of downtown. |
|
Down deep in the sludge and the shit and the mud |
|
There's death in the air, and it don't belong there. |
|
Where all the stray dogs, junkdogs and demons all ______ the tread |
|
Dispose of your dead and sift right through the crud and the slime. |
|
While elegant whores are waiting inside |
|
Your one hundred dollars can buy you no time. |
|
The teasing diseasing the carnival crowd |
|
Is waiting to blow out of this dead-end town. |
|
After the last laugh has swollen and shut |
|
When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks. |
|
(repeat 4 times) |
|
One more time! |
|
After the last laugh has swollen and shut |
|
When all that's left are the true beer hall drunks. |
