Mr. Germain
(专辑: Arabella Street - 2018)
Hey, can you tell me where Jacques-lmo's is, please? Yeah Alright cool, thanks What a
beautiful energy this place has The
other day a
homeless man told me Hey, stand tall hold your head high I
was just walking down the
street, minding my business Appears like a
wizard, kinda smells like a
dead guy For a
second I
felt he knew my inner-self Better than myself, some red around his mouth Lt is wine wine a
French blend before your time Hey it was like he read my mind Hi, my name is Mr. Germain, what a
beautiful day I
said, It's night? He said, You need to get out of your head Yeah, he was right, I
am stressed, I
am stressed I
started feeling like death He said, You wouldn't know Death if it sat with you on a
bench Then started tapping a
packet of cigarettes I
said, that stuff will kill you Then calmly, he interjects and says Not if you've already been forgotten And then the
next thing, I
seemed to had lost him They call me baby in New Orleans You ain't safe up on these streets, baby These streets ain't sweet, baby Cause they will take your rings, your clothes Your hat, your soul Now riding through Hollygrove This is beautiful New Orleans, baby (New Orleans, baby!) You can hear it in the
thunder If you listen when the
sun goes down You can hear it in the
thunder Can be vicious when the
sun goes down (Give me one second, young man, give me one second) Walking down mystery to get to a
streetcar hearing Greetings, Mr Reid, shouldn't you really be asleep now? Police car screams around the
corner, Ya, he says There's been a
scene, another bleeding lamb up to the
slaughter But I
warned you not to walk along this street after nighttime (Why?) "Might get shocked like a
key tied up to a
kite line (Huh?) What? You wonder what dying's like? (No) Wonder what the
light's like? (No) Like Stevie's eyesight? (No) Might just be feel the
bite like being on the
other side of Tyson Then he switches and says What a
time to be alive, Paul Not the
type of thing you take for granted Paul, that's how you vanish, Sleepwalking living life in your pyjamas Damn, its such a
waste of that bluh-bluh-Bloody life that you were given He stutteringly finishes Policeman doubles round the
block (Ha ha ha) I
turn back around to say goodbye, and then he's gone. They call me baby in New Orleans You ain't safe up on these streets, baby These streets ain't sweet, baby Cause they will take your rings, your clothes Your hat, your soul Now riding through Hollygrove This is beautiful New Orleans, baby (New Orleans, baby!) You can hear it in the
thunder If you listen when the
sun goes down You can hear it in the
thunder Can be vicious when the
sun goes down You can hear it in the
thunder If you listen when the
sun goes down You can hear it in the
thunder Can be vicious when the
sun goes down
