Blood Alley 가사

The cancers got it's grip upon you More evil than a grinning clown More evil than the harbour in Shanghai In which the suicides do drown Blood Alley you won't be tripping down it In opium dreams you'll be damned In blood alley with another set of dreamers Vertinsky sings and no one gives a damn And we can only watch as time passes See the young ones getting old The drinkers and the rebels and the junkies So now your warm heart is going cold We're drunk, the cold bites like a bulldog At the market they're singing bags of bones The sausages are sizzling with the onions in your grave you're just skin and bones The strange girl who sings like Marlene Dietrich Shall we murder those young groupie girls? The trannies twitch and dream of young men The street girls dream of diamonds and pearls The harmonium is no longer wheezing The celeste is rusting in the rain Anna who's son died at the market And left her bereft and in pain Another alchy's kidneys have malfunctioned In the gutter now he does lie Your penny whistle blows down this lonely street On Blood Alley I say goodbye
