Soho |
Rainstorm, brainstorm, faces in the maelstrom |
Huddle by the puddles in the shadows where the drains run |
Hot dogs, wet clogs clicking up the sidewalk |
Disappearing into the booze shop |
Rainbow queues stand down by the news stand, waiting for the late |
Show |
Pin ball, sin hall, minds in free fall |
Chocolate-coloured ladies making eyes through the smoke-pall |
Soho (needless to say) |
I’m alone on your streets on a Friday evening |
I’ve been here all of the day |
I’m going nowhere with nowhere to go |
Football supporters taking the waters |
They’re looking round for the twilight daughters |
Non-stop strip club pornographic bookshop |
Come into the back and take your time and have a good look |
Old man laughs with flowers in his hair |
Newspaper headline «Midde East Deadline» |
Jazz musicians are down on the breadline |
Soho (needless to say) |
I’m alone on your streets on a Friday evening |
I’ve been here all of the day |
I’m going nowhere with nowhere to go |
Soho feeds the needs and hides the deeds, the mind that bleeds |
Disenchanted, downstream in the night |
Soho hears the lies, the twisted cries, the lonely sighs |
Till she seems lost in dreams |
The sun goes down on a neon eon |
Though you’d have a job explaining it to Richard Coeur de Lion |
Animation, bar conversation, anticipation, disinclination |
Poor old wino turns with dust in his eyes |
Begs for the dregs from the bottom of the kegs, man |
You’ve never seen a lady lay down and spread her legs like |
Soho (needless to say) |
I’m alone on your sheets on a Friday evening |
I’ve been here all of the day |
I’m going nowhere with nowhere to go |
Soho (needless to say) |
I’m alone on your streets, or am I dreaming |
I’ve been here all of the day |
I’m going nowhere with nowhere to go |
