| [00:16.80] |
They're selling postcards of the hanging |
| [00:19.47] |
And they're painting the passports brown |
| [00:22.23] |
Yeah the beauty parlor is filled with sailors |
| [00:25.64] |
The circus is in town |
| [00:28.06] |
And now well here comes the blind commissioner |
| [00:30.94] |
They've got him in a trance |
| [00:33.71] |
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker |
| [00:37.24] |
The other is in his pants |
| [00:39.45] |
And the riot squads are restless |
| [00:42.58] |
They need somewhere to go |
| [00:45.20] |
As Lady and I look out tonight |
| [00:48.17] |
From Desolation Row |
| [00:50.79] |
|
| [00:52.47] |
Cinderella she seems so easy |
| [00:55.32] |
"Well it takes one to know one" she smiles |
| [00:58.19] |
And she puts her hands in her back pockets |
| [01:01.55] |
Bette Taylor style |
| [01:03.79] |
And now here comes Romeo moaning |
| [01:06.71] |
"You Belong to Me I Believe" |
| [01:09.55] |
And someone says " You're in the wrong place my friend |
| [01:13.22] |
You better leave" |
| [01:15.34] |
And the only sound that's left |
| [01:17.87] |
After the ambulances go |
| [01:20.81] |
Is Cinderella sweeping up |
| [01:24.00] |
On Desolation Row |
| [01:27.09] |
|
| [01:51.00] |
|
| [01:54.03] |
Now at midnight all the agents |
| [01:56.89] |
And the superhuman crew |
| [01:59.60] |
Go out and round up everyone |
| [02:02.77] |
That knows more than they do |
| [02:05.33] |
So come on bring them to the factory |
| [02:08.21] |
Where the heart-attack machine |
| [02:10.80] |
Is strapped across their shoulders |
| [02:13.99] |
And then the kerosene |
| [02:16.99] |
Is brought down from the castles |
| [02:19.50] |
By insurance men who go |
| [02:22.21] |
Check to see that nobody is escaping |
| [02:25.58] |
To Desolation Row |
| [02:28.08] |
Cause I can't read too good |
| [02:31.21] |
Don't send me no letters no |
| [02:33.72] |
Not unless you gotta mail them |
| [02:36.34] |
From Desolation Row |
| [02:39.54] |
|
| [02:42.84] |
|
| [03:01.00] |
