| Song | Freddy's Store |
| Artist | Jim Carroll |
| Album | I Write Your Name |
| 作词 : Carroll, Sanchez | |
| I'm walking uptown | |
| I hear a most peculiar sound | |
| Like a seashell in my ear | |
| Like the ocean was near | |
| I go inside this store | |
| To get my head clear | |
| Once i'm inside the air is fresh as [a lie?] | |
| You are greeted by a civil servant | |
| She is dressed in beads | |
| She jots down your needs | |
| And casually recedes | |
| Look around | |
| Take the elevator down | |
| Take it down | |
| Once you reach downstairs | |
| They take special care of you | |
| You cannot believe what you see | |
| You know guns to stop time | |
| Laid out in a line | |
| 445's to uzi-3's | |
| A man comes up in a uniform | |
| He says, you were just who we were looking for | |
| You heard the sound | |
| Let me show you around | |
| This place is big as some small towns | |
| We got every gun beneath the sun | |
| And the same for heavy munitions | |
| We got the space to train | |
| But we don't know you'll learn | |
| But now take the time, just look around | |
| Look around | |
| Feel the water rushing down | |
| Rushing down | |
| Refrain: | |
| But you better get ready | |
| If you're going to freddy's | |
| If you're going to freddy's store | |
| You can lose or win | |
| You can sink or swim | |
| But you don't know where or what for | |
| But you better get ready | |
| If you're going to freddy's | |
| If you're going to freddy's store | |
| It's not exactly hell, | |
| It's more like bechtel | |
| They got only one item to sell | |
| There's a booth for dressing | |
| Also used for confession | |
| There's a jesuit on call here | |
| Twenty-four hours a day | |
| He can guide you to pray | |
| To waylay your modern guilt and fear | |
| You live by the sword, you die, etcetera | |
| And the same goes for an m-15 | |
| But what the hell | |
| When freddy rings that bell | |
| Just make certain that your weapon is clean | |
| And pointing down, | |
| Down to the ground | |
| Can you live in the tropics? | |
| Can you fight on the sand? | |
| Have you compunctions to function | |
| In a far off land? | |
| Can you kill a despot in an african nation? | |
| Can you bite the pill | |
| If the operation don't go down? | |
| Down, if it don't go down | |
| And there's a galley [. . . ?] | |
| [. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ?] | |
| We don't distinguish left or ust don't ask about behind that door | |
| You can stand on the corner | |
| You can do the jerk | |
| You can go to the disco | |
| You can go berserk | |
| But there are plenty of generals | |
| And plenty of shahs | |
| Who drive a coupe deville after the coup de etat | |
| It's up to you, | |
| You got one chance to score | |
| Everybody gets a little piece of war | |
| Just don't ask about behind that door | |
| Hit the ground, get down | |
| It's coming down | |
| The door is coming down | |
| Repeat refrain |
