[00:10.62] |
Take a little walk to the edge of town |
[00:13.72] |
Go across the tracks |
[00:17.38] |
Where the viaduct looms |
[00:19.76] |
Like a bird of doom |
[00:21.46] |
As it shifts and cracks |
[00:25.71] |
Where secrets lie in the border fires |
[00:29.77] |
In the humming wires |
[00:31.86] |
Hey man, you know |
[00:32.84] |
You're never turning back |
[00:34.99] |
Past the square, past the bridge |
[00:36.69] |
Past the mills, past the stacks |
[00:41.68] |
On a gathering storm comes |
[00:43.70] |
A tall handsome man |
[00:45.50] |
In a dusty black coat with |
[00:47.80] |
A red right hand |
[00:50.10] |
|
[00:57.89] |
He'll wrap you in his arms |
[01:00.53] |
Tell you that you've been a good boy |
[01:05.69] |
He'll rekindle all the dreams |
[01:08.60] |
It took you a lifetime to destroy |
[01:14.09] |
He'll reach deep into the hole |
[01:16.75] |
Heal your shrinking soul |
[01:18.45] |
But there won't be a single thing that you can do |
[01:23.20] |
He's a god, he's a man |
[01:24.70] |
He's a ghost, he's a guru |
[01:29.75] |
They're whispering his name |
[01:31.75] |
Through this disappearing land |
[01:33.70] |
But hidden in his coat |
[01:35.74] |
Is a red right hand |
[01:37.80] |
|
[02:02.14] |
You don't have no money? |
[02:04.75] |
He'll get you some |
[02:10.20] |
You don't have no car? |
[02:12.75] |
He'll get you one |
[02:17.85] |
You don't have no self-respect |
[02:20.00] |
You feel like an insect |
[02:23.30] |
Well don't you worry buddy |
[02:25.33] |
Cause here he comes |
[02:27.49] |
Through the ghettos and the barrio |
[02:29.54] |
And the Bowery and the slums |
[02:34.81] |
A shadow is cast wherever he stands |
[02:38.86] |
Stacks of green paper in his |
[02:40.86] |
Red right hand |
