Martigan - Painter lyrics

A painter's waiting for the show what's he to see A poet's waiting tor a film what's he to taste Clouds of metal cover Ihe sky they're movin' fast - they're rushing by hurrying through the latenight-show velocity makes the moment glow Pirates and gamblers are taking the harbour the gentlemen already left the stage wine and rum and dirty hands and faces grab for the might- right by the night I'm like a deaf-jailed in a skin of rubber see like a blind what's on my mind swimming across the lake of origin clingin' to the last cloud that's left in the sky Pirates and gamblers are taking the harbour the gentlemen already left the stage wine and rum and dirty hands and faces grab for the might - right by the night Noone gets inspiration ol this slow corrupted ana motionless mess newsreports on state of the fall all got phones but noone to call jets and trains and noone escapes trips to pain - knights without brain tricks to gain the most - the main A gambler's waiting for a dime ... What's he to gain
