[00:17.200]feeling down like him
[00:23.000]seeing the light in a station bar
[00:26.110]and travelling far in sin
[00:31.920]sailing downstairs to the northern line
[00:34.700]watching the shine of the shoes
[00:41.090]and hearing the trial of the people there
[00:44.940]who's to care if they lose.
[00:50.920]and take a look you may see me on the ground
[00:58.120]for i am the parasite of this town..

[01:30.800]making the moon for fun
[01:39.890]and changing a rope for a size too small
[01:43.260]people all get hung.
[01:49.260]take a look you may see me coming through
[01:56.610]for i am the parasite who travels two by two.
