Down On Terminal Street

歌詞

Nelson I took a walk down terminal street last night To see the ancient faces living there I saw the sunken eyes of agony And saw the desperate stations of despair The madman waiting for the spirit girls to come In a song well written but unsung I saw the smiling wardens cracking down the noose In which my drowning head was hung Oh, down on terminal street Oh, down on terminal street The street cafe was closed to all but ghosts Who glide the alleys searching for their lair I heard a voice like winter call my name Said very soon that I would join them there And all the creatures born of ink and rage and lies Crawled off my pan and ran across the page to die Fascination was the germ of their disease Degradation is the term of their release Oh, down on terminal street Oh, down on terminal street Oh yes, I'm down on terminal street tonight Oh no, not down on terminal street tonight Oh yes, down on terminal street tonight Oh no, down on terminal street tonight Oh yes, I'm down on terminal street tonight Terminal street!
