I would love to be the lucky one on Chill Avenue |
| [00:15.48] |
Who could keep your heart warm when ice has turned it blue |
| [00:18.50] |
But beggin' sleeping losers as they turn in for the night |
| [00:21.52] |
I'm lookin' back for home and I can see the lights |
| [00:24.71] |
I should be jumpin' shoutin' that I made it all this way |
| [00:27.66] |
From Camden Town station on to 44th and 8th |
| [00:30.72] |
Not many make it this far, many say we're great |
| [00:33.99] |
But just like them we walk on, we can't escape our fate |
| [00:37.28] |
Can't you hear the sighin' |
| [00:43.38] |
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue |
| [00:46.32] |
Both say they needed somethin' new |
| [00:48.62] |
|
| [00:49.26] |
So I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [00:52.44] |
I burn money at the lights of the sign |
| [00:55.19] |
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime |
| [01:01.98] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the East |
| [01:04.93] |
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend |
| [01:07.62] |
The city casts a shadow, will I see you again? |
| [01:11.90] |
|
| [01:14.73] |
The immigrants and remnants of all the glory years |
| [01:18.02] |
Are clustered 'round the bar again for another round of beers |
| [01:21.05] |
Little Richard's in the kitchen playin' spoons and plates |
| [01:24.12] |
He's tellin' the waitress he's great |
| [01:27.04] |
Ah say I know somewhere back 'n' forth in time |
| [01:30.57] |
Out on the dust bowls, deep in the roulette mine |
| [01:33.42] |
Or in a ghetto cellar only yesterday |
| [01:36.61] |
There's a move into the future for the USA |
| [01:42.09] |
I hear them cryin' |
| [01:46.31] |
Eastside Jimmy and Southside Sue |
| [01:49.14] |
Both said they needed something new |
| [01:51.06] |
|
| [01:52.11] |
So I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [01:55.21] |
I burn money at the lights of the sign |
| [01:58.02] |
The city casts a shadow of the perfect crime |
| [02:05.09] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the East |
| [02:07.95] |
I take my pulse and the pulse of my friend |
| [02:11.00] |
The city casts a shadow, will I see you again? |
| [02:15.81] |
|
| [02:30.56] |
Standing at the Gates of the West |
| [02:36.21] |
In the shadow again |
| [02:43.05] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [02:49.06] |
In the shadow again |
| [02:55.73] |
I'm standing at the Gates of the West |
| [03:01.70] |
In the shadow again |
| [03:11.15] |
In the shadow again |
| [03:15.71] |
|
