[00:00.00]	作词 : Martin Hannett/John Cooper Clarke/Stephen Hopkins
[00:01.00]	作曲 : Martin Hannett/John Cooper Clarke/Stephen Hopkins
[00:19.65]	Far from crazy pavements
[00:23.40]	The taste of silver spoons
[00:27.18]	A clinical arrangement
[00:30.06]	On a dirty afternoon
[00:33.45]	Where the fecal germs of Mr Freud
[00:37.86]	Are rendered obsolete
[00:40.92]	The legal term is null and void
[00:44.16]	In the case of Beasley Street
[00:47.94]	In the cheap seats where murder breeds
[00:51.33]	Somebody is out of breath
[00:55.32]	Sleep is a luxury they don't need
[00:58.47]	A sneak preview of death
[01:03.03]	Belladonna is your flower
[01:06.54]	Manslaughter your meat
[01:09.96]	Spend a year in a couple of hours
[01:12.84]	On the edge of Beasley Street
[01:17.25]	Where the action isn't
[01:20.82]	That's where it is
[01:22.23]	State your position
[01:27.93]	Vacancies exist
[01:30.72]	In an X-certificate exercise
[01:34.32]	Ex-servicemen excrete
[01:37.77]	Keith Joseph smiles and a baby dies
[01:41.43]	In a box on Beasley Street
[01:44.91]	From the boarding houses and the bedsits
[01:48.09]	Full of accidents and fleas
[01:52.89]	Somebody gets it
[01:55.56]	Where the missing persons freeze
[02:00.06]	Wearing dead men's overcoats
[02:03.45]	You can't see their feet
[02:06.69]	A riff joint shuts opens up
[02:09.72]	Right down on Beasley Street
[02:14.25]	Cars collide, colors clash
[02:17.70]	Disaster movie stuff
[02:20.76]	For a man with a Fu Manchu mustache
[02:24.81]	Revenge is not enough
[02:27.69]	There's a dead canary on a swivel seat
[02:31.20]	There's a rainbow in the road
[02:35.64]	Meanwhile on Beasley Street
[02:38.61]	Silence is the code
[02:49.95]	Hot beneath the collar
[02:53.46]	An inspector calls
[02:56.22]	Where the perishing stink of squalor
[03:00.60]	Impregnates the walls
[03:03.63]	The rats have all got rickets
[03:07.02]	They spit through broken teeth
[03:10.74]	The name of the game is not cricket
[03:14.04]	Caught out on Beasley Street
[03:18.36]	The hipster and his hired hat
[03:22.14]	Drive a borrowed car
[03:25.62]	Yellow socks and a pink cravat
[03:28.05]	Nothing la-di-dah
[03:36.00]	OAP, mother to be
[03:36.33]	Watch the three-piece suite
[03:39.06]	When shit-stoppered drain
[03:41.16]	And crocodile skis
[03:42.87]	Are seen on Beasley Street
[03:46.86]	The kingdom of the blind
[03:50.55]	A one-eyed man is king
[03:54.24]	Beauty problems are redefined
[03:57.12]	The doorbells do not ring
[04:00.81]	A light bulb bursts like a blister
[04:04.74]	The only form of heat
[04:07.59]	Here a fellow sells his sister
[04:11.16]	Down the river on Beasley Street
[04:15.45]	The boys are on the wagon
[04:18.96]	The girls are on the shelf
[04:23.22]	Their common problem is
[04:25.62]	That they're not someone else
[04:29.88]	The dirt blows out
[04:31.08]	The dust blows in
[04:32.52]	You can't keep it neat
[04:36.30]	It's a fully furnished dustbin
[04:40.08]	Sixteen Beasley Street
[04:42.45]	Vince the aging savage
[04:47.52]	Betrays no kind of life
[04:50.46]	But the smell of yesterday's cabbage
[04:53.88]	And the ghost of last year's wife
[04:57.54]	Through a constant haze
[04:59.46]	Of deodorant sprays
[05:02.10]	He says retreat
[05:03.69]	Alsatians dog the dirty days
[05:08.19]	Down the middle of Beasley Street
[05:12.57]	People turn to poison
[05:14.91]	Quick as lager turns to piss
[05:19.80]	Sweethearts are physically sick
[05:23.31]	Every time they kiss
[05:26.16]	It's a sociologist's paradise
[05:30.57]	Each day repeats
[05:33.51]	On easy, cheesy, greasy, queasy
[05:37.14]	Beastly Beasley Street
[05:41.28]	Eyes dead as vicious fish
[05:44.88]	Look around for laughs
[05:48.27]	If I could have just one wish
[05:51.03]	I would be a photograph
[05:55.20]	On a permanent Monday morning
[05:58.23]	Get lost or fall asleep
[06:01.77]	When the yellow cats are yawning
[06:05.19]	Around the back of Beasley Street
