Man (band) - Scotch Corner lyrics

See them in the road house drifting out of sight In broken bars and cafés they wander through the night Some look for silence, somewhere to hide Some take their chances, choose suicide This man looked like a turtle that life had blown to bits His eyes were full of wisdom but his mouth was full of sh** God gave him nothing, just let it ride The pockets are empty, something has died It's good to see a human too mad to be afraid Between the night starvation and the truck girls getting laid Her lips are scarlet, her hair is dyed I love her sorrow, I know she tried A man that stands there proudly and burns the flame both ends That can't be hurt by anyone at all God gave us angels, we k** them all God made us k**ers with too far to fall See them in the roadhouse drifting out of sight In broken bars and cafés they wander through the night Some look for silence, somewhere to hide Some take their chances, choose suicide
