And now mine's tumblin' down around But at least my eyes can see And those stars in the sky are for me So as this fagged-out tinsel town waves so-long to the sun I lay here calmly on my bed and the trigger of my gun And should that no good woman show up dancin' from a dream I'll squeeze it twice and not think twice and relish every scream HARRY AND MAGGIE I was born on a close street down a hill. The trees that line the street could sense the winter change, they felt the chill. They ducked and dived so we knew they were alive. Until the year the silver rain came down - the trees turned mauve. And so did my hands - oh, and the sound . . . there was no sound and I'm freezing in the sun. Nobody cares to hide the dopeheads and the suicides 'cause everyone freezes in the sun. And it's fallin' away I kicked around with Harry who lived near Salisbury Plain, he worked on the cathedral there every now and again. He worked with stone, carved with stone, odd jobs on the telephone. One summer day he was sent to the Houses of Parliament. Chippin' away at the gargoyles under the blistering sun he carved out "Maggie Sucks" on the backs of every one. And so in five-hundred years there's gonna be some history here - after it all subsides in the sun. And it's fallin' away And I don't wanna know I'm glad I don't know What's draggin' it under Another day, another loon, a new pied piper calls the tune. So blow it up, watch it explode - Noah's ark on overload. Wrestle with the results and throw 'em round the ring. Everybody knows there ain't no rules in wrestling (everybody knows there ain't no rules). The referee's a dupe. Only old ladies and children believe. I'm getting up now to leave. I'll go back to that street someday - the air's better there anyway, though the trees are still gonna freeze in the sun. And it's fallin' away And I don't wanna know I'm glad I don't know What's draggin' it under Fallin' away And it's fallin' away And I don't wanna know I'm glad I don't know What's draggin' it under Fallin' away And it's fallin' away And I don't wanna know I'm glad I don't know What's draggin' it under Fallin' away And it's fallin' away A CHANGE IS GONNA COME I keep on thinkin' it's wrong So I'm chargin' you in a song It's comin' your way You shouldn't feel this way And yet you think it's a sin I ain't your color of skin It's comin' your way You shouldn't feel this way I keep on losin' my feet When I walk down the street I keep on thinkin' it's you Guess it makes me feel blue You say it's broken your dreams They fall apart at the seams It's comin' your way You shouldn't feel this way You shouldn't feel this way I shouldn't feel this way You shouldn't feel this way You shouldn't feel this way You shouldn't feel this way I shouldn't feel this way We shouldn't feel this way GIRL ON A MOTORBIKE Take a walk through the city Turn right at Potzdamer Platz To see a girl on a motorbike Expression carved on her face Saw a man in a cafe downtown Who says it fucks with your head When you're tryin' to sleep at night With a gun across your bed Don't wanna be down at heel Don't wanna be down at heel You've shown disgrace on my place You've gotta know how it feels Sometimes at night when it's cold outside It would be easier and sweet To hack a road through the jungle Than clear a path down the street Too many folk in the middle lane Don't wanna swerve 'gainst the rails Apathy balanced with disdain Dogs chasin' their own tails Don't wanna be down at heel Don't wanna be down at heel Come breakin' down my front door You've gotta know how it feels Followed the girl on a motorbike Saw her enter a bar It's dark inside with candles burnin' To liberate her scars She spanish-dance on the table Butterflies that burn It's like an incessant fox hunt Too many lessons learnt DURESS And when the dawn begins to creep Sunlight finds you in a heap And how you wish that you could sleep Forget the lies that you've been told You think you're settin' free your soul But you're really gettin' old You've dreamt of divin' in the sea Outstretched arms in front of me And how you wished that you could breathe In the grip of ecstasy When the shadows follow me And the night won't set me free You wish someone could love you less Longing for that one caress I see you sink under Duress And when you wanna kill it dead You let it throttle you instead (repeat all 1X) YOU FIND IT
