Farewell, Angelina
(专辑: Bowery Songs - 2005)
Farewell, Angelina The
bells of the
crown Are being stolen by bandits I
must follow the
sound. The
triangle tingles And the
trumpets play slow. Farewell, Angelina The
sky is on fire And I
must go. There's no need for anger There's no need for blame. There's nothing to prove Everything's still the
same. Just a
table standing empty By the
edge of the
sea means Farewell, Angelina The
sky is trembling And I
must leave. The
jack and the
queen Have forsake the
courtyard. Fifty-two gypsies Now file past the
guards In the
space where the
deuce And the
ace once ran wild Farewell, Angelina The
sky is falling I'll see you in a
while. See the
cross-eyed pirates sitting Perched in the
sun Shooting tin cans With a
sawed-off shotgun. And the
neighobrs they clap And they cheer with each blast. Farewell, Angelina The
sky's changing color And I
must leave fast King Kong, little elves On the
rooftops they dance Valentino-type tangos While the
makeup man's hands Shut the
eyes of the
dead Not to embarrass anyone. But Farewell, Angelina The
sky's embarrassed And I
must be gone. The
machine guns are roaring The
puppets heave rocks And fiends nail time bombs To the
hands of the
clocks. Call me any name you like I
will never deny it, But Farewell, Angelina The
sky is erupting I
must go where it's quiet.
