Slow death to the nightingale | |
His voice would always fail | |
In tenement towers | |
and on rails | |
And all of these praising words | |
They all seem so absurd, so absurd | |
Your poverty you declare | |
The paint blisters on your stairs | |
The dampness in your bones is always there | |
And all of these praising words | |
Well, they all seem so absurd, so absurd | |
Ever thought that you would be | |
This washed up and lonely | |
This washed up and lonely | |
This lonely |
