Child of the Living Darkness Verse (1) I'm a child of the living darkness A dealer in lost causes A midnight cowboy Who rode the plains of time No compass there to guide me Just scrambled brains That fed miss-information To a mind before it's time Verse (2) Life's been a Railway Station See the one - you've seen them all Just can't remember The who, the why?, the where Going round in viscous circles Getting smaller, lasting longer Had my poker in a fire That just went out CHORUS The World goes one way And I went the other Just to see What was on the other side But, there's no-one there To stop me or my ways
The World goes one way And I went the other Just to see What was on the other side But, there's no-one there To stop me or my ways
Was it meant to make you so wise Not at all For I took a disguise You're a shadow of a man Who once walked tall Lying pissed on the kerb You did the crawl Not all, not all, not all, my friend, And that ain't all.
Did it mean That you had it made? Your lying in a Psycho Ward, afraid And, how did you pay For the laughter and the scorn Right through the nose And, you got no change Not all etc.
You invented the body swerve Just for me You sent me up an alley Just to do a pee You made me fly Just like a kite I flew the coop Out of mind and sight Not all, etc.
Electric meters are your bank When the money ran out Well, you had a tank And the birds in your bed Who did their tricks Excuse me honey, 'What's your name? I'm sick! Not all, etc. Ken Mathers© 1974 Composed - Halkett Crescent Alexandria G83 Coinneach Music ã 1999 |
