When you're lost in the rain in juarez |
[00:25.55] |
And it's eastertime too |
[00:29.91] |
And your gravity fails |
[00:31.81] |
And negativity don't pull you through |
[00:42.30] |
Don't put on any airs |
[00:44.06] |
When you're down on rue morgue avenue |
[00:49.42] |
They got some hungry women there |
[00:52.23] |
And they really make a mess outa you |
[01:08.76] |
|
[01:07.61] |
Now if you see saint annie |
[01:08.37] |
Please tell her thanks a lot |
[01:10.76] |
I cannot move |
[01:22.44] |
My fingers are all in a knot |
[01:22.65] |
I don't have the strength |
[01:23.21] |
To get up and take another shot |
[01:27.03] |
And my best friend, my doctor |
[01:30.98] |
Won't even say what it is i've got |
[01:38.60] |
|
[01:38.80] |
Sweet melinda |
[01:40.50] |
The peasants call her the goddess of gloom |
[01:47.18] |
She speaks good english |
[01:50.38] |
And she invites you up into her room |
[02:01.15] |
And you're so kind |
[02:02.00] |
And careful not to go to her too soon |
[02:06.14] |
And she takes your voice |
[02:08.57] |
And leaves you howling at the moon |
[02:17.01] |
|
[02:17.48] |
Up on housing project hill |
[02:19.22] |
It's either fortune or fame |
[02:25.53] |
You must pick up one or the other |
[02:28.66] |
Though neither of them are to be what they claim |
[02:37.31] |
If you're lookin' to get silly |
[02:38.65] |
You better go back to from where you came |
[02:44.74] |
Because the cops don't need you |
[02:47.50] |
And man they expect the same |
[02:53.68] |
|
[02:54.07] |
Now all the authorities |
[02:57.92] |
They just stand around and boast |
[03:03.37] |
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms |
[03:08.28] |
Into leaving his post |
[03:12.99] |
And picking up angel who |
[03:15.92] |
Just arrived here from the coast |
[03:23.97] |
Who looked so fine at first |
[03:26.12] |
But left looking just like a ghost |
[03:28.60] |
solo |
[04:09.21] |
|
[04:10.29] |
I started out on burgundy |
[04:12.76] |
But soon hit the harder stuff |
[04:19.36] |
Everybody said they'd stand behind me |
[04:24.34] |
When the game got rough |
[04:31.84] |
But the joke was on me |
[04:32.72] |
There was nobody even there to call my bluff |
[04:38.20] |
I'm going back to new york city |
[04:41.18] |
I do believe i've had enough |
