The Fall - Winter 1 lyrics

Entrances uncovered Street signs you never saw All entrances delivered Courtesy winter You got Manny in the library Working off his hangover 3:30 You get the spleen at 3:15 But its 3:13 The mad kid walked left-side south-side towards me He was about 7 His mother was a cleaning lady She had a large black dog And the mad kid said: "gimme the lead Gimme the lead Gimme the lead" Id just walked past the alcoholics dry-out house The lawn was littered with cans of barbican There was a feminists Austin maxi parked outside With anti-nicotine anti-nuclear stickers on the side On the inside and they didn't even smoke Anyway two weeks before the mad kid had said to me "ill take both of you on Ill take both of you on" Then he seemed the young one He had a parka on and a black cardboard archbishops hat With a green-fuzz skull and crossbones He'd just got back from the backward kids party Anyway then he seemed the young one But now he looked like the victim of a pogrom Entrances uncovered Street signs you never saw All entrances delivered Courtesy winter Entrances uncovered All inquiries too All entrances delivered Courtesy winter Winter
