Fare Evader |
| Some cheek you’ve got to call this a city |
| The busted end of a long dusty road |
| I lost a lotta years here, a gutterbound pedestrian |
| Nailed to a mood as black as dirty coal |
| And I’m sick of the death they’ve |
| Painted on their faces, the rattle in their lungs |
| The poison in the guts o' them is dripping off their tongues |
| A prick of a town, I’ll live you down, I swear I’ll find a way |
| The way it’s lookin', it won’t I reckon be happening today |
| Fare evader on the 8.15 |
| She reeks o' menace, cheap perfume &nicotine |
| Sometimes she cries for no reason |
| A cough like a shotgun, says «I'm in love with no-one |
| I’m gettin' my shit together y’know, I’m just havin' a bad one,» |
| A prick of a town, I’ll live you down, I swear I’ll find a way |
| The way it’s lookin', it won’t I reckon be happening today |
| There’s no jewels among the shit here can tempt me |
| No heart beats beneath your empty coat |
| I lost a lotta souls here to forces just unspeakable |
| And I can’t see beyond the end of my rope |
| But I’ll remember all you taught me |
| The violence of women, the cowardice of men |
| The courage o' children who were lookin' for a friend |
| A prick of a town, I’ll live you down, I swear I’ll find a way |
| The way it’s lookin', it won’t I reckon be happening today |
