Songs Title：just like tom thumb’s blues
youre When lost in the rain in juarez
its And easter time too
And your gravity fails
And negativity dont pull you through
Dont put on any airs
When youre down on rue morgue avenue
They got some hungry women there
And they really make a mess out of you
Now if you see saint annie
tell Please her thanks a lot
I cannot move
My fingers are all in a knot
I dont have the strength
To get up and take another shot
And my best friend my doctor
Wont even say what it is I have got
Sweet melinda
The peasants call her the goddess of gloom
speaks She good english
And she invites you up into her room
And youre so kind
And careful not to go to her too soon
And then she takes your voice
And leaves you howling at the moon .............
Up on housing project hill
Its either fortune or fame
You can take one or the other
Though neither of them
Are to be what they claim
If youre looking to get silly
You better go back from where you came
Because the cops dont need you
And man they expect the same
the Now authoritiesall

just They stand around and boast
Hew they blackmailed the sergeant at arms
Into leaving his post
And picking up my brother car who
Just arrived here from the coast
Who looked so fine at first
But left looking just like a ghost well like they ghost i seed

I when started out on burgundy
But soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said theyd stand behind me
When the game got rough
ah But the joke was on me
There was nobody even there to bluff
Im going back to new york city
I do believe Ive had enough
