| [00:05.13] |
The stories of the street are mine |
| [00:09.39] |
The Spanish voices laugh |
| [00:14.67] |
The Cadillacs go creeping down |
| [00:17.89] |
Through the night and the poison gas |
| [00:22.47] |
I lean from my window sill |
| [00:26.25] |
in this old hotel I chose |
| [00:30.52] |
Yes, one hand on my suicide |
| [00:35.54] |
And one hand on the rose |
| [00:48.85] |
I know you've heard it's over now |
| [00:53.20] |
And war must surely come |
| [00:57.76] |
The cities they are broke in half |
| [01:01.33] |
And the middle men are gone |
| [01:05.41] |
But let me ask you one more time |
| [01:09.48] |
O children of the dust |
| [01:14.29] |
These hunters who are shrieking now |
| [01:19.22] |
Do they speak for us? |
| [01:32.26] |
And where do all these highways go |
| [01:36.63] |
Now that we are free? |
| [01:40.92] |
Why are the armies marching still |
| [01:45.13] |
That were coming home to me? |
| [01:49.12] |
O lady with your legs so fine |
| [01:53.49] |
O stranger at your wheel |
| [01:57.88] |
You are locked into your suffering |
| [02:01.70] |
And your pleasures are the seal |
| [02:16.35] |
The age of lust is giving birth |
| [02:21.67] |
But both the parents ask |
| [02:25.18] |
The nurse to tell them fairy tales |
| [02:29.17] |
On both sides of the glass |
| [02:34.25] |
Now the infant with his cord |
| [02:38.19] |
Is hauled in like a kite |
| [02:41.30] |
And one eye filled with blueprints |
| [02:45.97] |
One eye filled with night |
| [02:59.60] |
O come with me my little one |
| [03:04.64] |
And we will find that farm |
| [03:08.97] |
And grow us grass and apples there |
| [03:13.02] |
To keep all the animals warm |
| [03:16.95] |
And if by chance I wake at night |
| [03:21.30] |
And I ask you who I am |
| [03:25.11] |
O take me to the slaughter house |
| [03:29.36] |
I will wait there with the lamb |
| [03:44.07] |
With one hand on a hexagram |
| [03:48.48] |
And one hand on a girl |
| [03:51.78] |
I balance on a wishing well |
| [03:56.24] |
That all men call the world |
| [04:00.42] |
We are so small between the stars |
| [04:04.68] |
So large against the sky |
| [04:09.07] |
And lost among the subway crowds |
| [04:13.28] |
I try to catch your eye |
