Fulham Blues

(альбом: The Call - 1982)

We were waiting at the Fulham station
For the last train east
A one-way ticket
The foreigners searching for the living
They got your sidewalk citizens
Mooking all around
The tunnels were dark
We drove underground
Things look different
Things feel strange

You're out of luck
You could be in danger down here
You ain't at home (don't stare)
You could be in danger down here

When we rose to the surface
We were all stunned
The shock of what's real
Like the sound of a gun
You can't miss it

All the carney lights flashing
On the midway stroll
The blind getting fleeced
By the lovers of gold
Oh, it gets lonely
Man, it gets cold

You're out of luck
You could be in danger down here
You ain't at home (don't stare)
You could be in danger down here
(There'll be no staring down here)

We were growing so reckless
We were hurting for fun
There's no turning back
To where you'd begun
It's behind us
I remember well walking for hours
Through the scenes of old
An old soldier singing out
Bearing his soul empty handed
We stood there freezing
On the empty streets
There'd be no rescue tonight
It seems we've been stranded
I said stranded

You're out of luck
Brother you're in danger down here
You ain't at home (don't stare)
(There'll be no staring down here)

You're out of luck
You could be in trouble boy
You ain't at home (no)
You could be in danger
Danger

But you will be taken care of
