《The Days Of Pearly Spencer》歌词

[00:00:00] The Days Of Pearly Spencer - Marc Almond

[00:00:01] Written by：Marc Almond/David MacWilliams/David Mcwilliams

[00:00:36] A tenement a dirty street

[00:00:39] Walked and worn by shoeless feet

[00:00:41] Inside it's long and so complete

[00:00:43] Watched by a shivering sun

[00:00:47] Old eyes in a small child's face

[00:00:49] Watching as the shadows race

[00:00:51] Through walls and cracks and leave no trace

[00:00:53] And daylight's brightness shuns

[00:01:01] The days of pearly spencer

[00:01:10] The race is almost run

[00:01:15] Nose pressed hard on frosted glass

[00:01:17] Gazing as the swollen mass

[00:01:19] On concrete fields where grows no grass

[00:01:22] Stumbles blindly on

[00:01:26] Iron trees smother the air

[00:01:27] But withering they stand and stare

[00:01:30] Through eyes that neither know nor care

[00:01:32] Where the grass is gone

[00:01:39] The days of pearly spencer

[00:01:48] The race is almost run

[00:01:54] Pearly where's your milk white skin

[00:01:56] What's that stubble on your chin

[00:01:58] It's buried in the rot gut gin

[00:02:00] You played and lost not won

[00:02:04] You played a house that can't be beat

[00:02:06] Now look your head's bowed in defeat

[00:02:08] You walked too far along the street

[00:02:10] Where only rats can run

[00:02:18] The days of pearly spencer

[00:02:27] The race is almost run

[00:02:36] The days of pearly spencer

[00:02:45] The race is almost run

[00:02:50] The race is almost run

[00:03:23] A tenement a dirty street

[00:03:26] Remember worn and shoeless feet

[00:03:30] Remember how you stood to beat

[00:03:33] The way your life had gone

[00:03:37] So pearly don't you shed more tears

[00:03:41] For those best forgotten years

[00:03:44] Those tenements are memories

[00:03:48] Of where you've risen from

[00:03:57] The days of pearly spencer

[00:04:09] The race is almost won
