作曲 : Meloy | |
In matching blue raincoats our shoes were our show boats | |
We kicked around | |
From stairway to station we made a sensation | |
With the gadabout crowd | |
And oh, what a bargain we're two easy targets | |
For the old men at the off-tracks | |
Who've paid in palaver and crumpled old dollars | |
Which we squirreled away in our rat trap hotel by the freeway | |
And we slept-in | |
SundaysYour parents were anxious your cool was contagious | |
At the old school | |
You left without leaving a note for your grieving | |
Sweet mother, while your brother was so cruel | |
And here in the alleys your spirits were rallied | |
As you learned quick to make a fast buck | |
In bathrooms and barrooms on dumpsters and heirlooms | |
We bit our tongues sucked our lips into our lungs | |
Till we were falling such was our calling | |
And here in our hollow we fuse like a family | |
But I will not mourn for you | |
So take up your makeup and pocket your pills away | |
We're kings among runaways on the bus mall | |
We're down on the bus mall | |
Among all the urchins and old | |
Chinese merchants of the old town | |
We reigned at the pool hall with one iron cue ball | |
And we never let the bastards get us down | |
And we laughed off the quick tricks the old men with limp dicks | |
On the colonnades of the waterfront park | |
As 4 in the morning came on, cold and boring we huddled close | |
In the bus stop enclosure enfolding our hands tightly holding | |
But here in our hollow we fuse like a family | |
But I will not mourn for you | |
So take up your makeup and pocket your pills away | |
We're kings among runaways on the bus mall | |
We're down on the bus mall | |
We're down on the bus mall | |
Down on the bus mall, oh ooh oh |
