Marquee Moon |
| I remember |
| How the darkness doubled |
| I recall |
| Lightning struck itself. |
| I was listening |
| Listening to the rain |
| I was hearing |
| Hearing something else. |
| Life in the hive puckered up my night, |
| The kiss of death, the embrace of life. |
| There I stand neath the Marquee Moon Just waiting, |
| Hesitating… |
| I ain’t waiting |
| I spoke to a man |
| Down at the tracks. |
| I asked him |
| How he don’t go mad. |
| He said «Look here junior, don’t you be so happy. |
| And for Heaven’s sake, don’t you be so sad.» |
| Well a Cadillac |
| It pulled out of the graveyard. |
| Pulled up to me |
| All they said get in. |
| Then the Cadillac |
| It puttered back into the graveyard. |
| And me, |
| I got out again. |
