Grant Lee Buffalo - For The Turnstiles lyrics

All the sailors with their seasick mamas Hear the sirens on the shore Singin' songs for pimps with tailors Who charge ten dollars at the door You can really learn a lot that way It will change you in the middle of the day Though your confidence may be shattered It doesn't matter All the great explorers Are now in granite lake Under white sheets for the great unveiling At the big parade You can really learn a lot that way It will change you in the middle of the day Though your confidence may be shattered It doesn't matter All the bush-league batters Are left to die on the diamond In the stands the home crowd scatters For the turnstiles For the turnstiles For the turnstiles For the turnstiles
