As the city asleep Shares its dreams and desires Every wish that we keep Will trace a line to other times, other places Though the song of the proud Howls and dies, never fall for defeat Take a trip to reprieve every hour they leave From Killermont StreetDrink a drink to before And our memories spill Adding on as they pour From our Saturdays and secret sensations Drink a drink to tonight Whiskey words tumble down in the street With the pain that they cure, sentimentally yours From Killermont StreetAnd with collar upturned I made it south to see That the love I had spurned Was just the hate in me As the ships and the steel Slip away to the cry of compete There's a message for us, we can get there by bus From Killermont StreetThere's a message for us, we can get there by bus From Killermont Street
