《Shinbone Alley》歌词

[00:00:21] Moonlight through the chicken wire, humming windowpane,

[00:00:29] Lukewarm water gasping down a rusty drain

[00:00:37] Big town's in need of mending, street lights make tooth some seams

[00:00:46] Denim shadows shuffle in between the beams.

[00:00:54] Different strokes for different folks so

[00:00:58] Mind your manner and easy on the ethnic jokes

[00:01:01] It's a dumbbell curve, your trying to tally,

[00:01:06] All the way down to shin bone alley

[00:01:20] Streets are metacarpal and flesh of asphalt calm

[00:01:28] Buildings rise like fingers from a concrete palm

[00:01:37] Yellow lit apartment trickle through the drapes

[00:01:45] Windows frame each history hidden even from the fire escapes

[00:01:53] Sullen winter sparrow lends wing to expanse of grey

[00:01:56] Six-thirty-two in the morning on Thanksgiving day

[00:02:09] And the bums they hit their corners, the thunderbird rubs their bones

[00:02:18] And the crack addicts stare at the snowflakes zigzagging down to greet jones

[00:02:26] Different strokes for different folks so.....

[00:03:44] Seven-thirty-two on the same day, your bare feet on the parquet

[00:03:52] And the light so papery white shining past the microwave

[00:04:00] Knuckles to eyeballs and elbows on the table

[00:04:08] Spend the day gazing from the window gable....
