lyrics

THE WALK MAN

when the crimson curtain falls

at the end of the encore

there will be no grand applause

as I walk from the stage

years of staring at the screen

refining hallucination

ghostly voices in the streets

heckling from miles away



CHORUS

my body’s hanging from the rafters

for the crowd to see

blitzed like a glorious disaster

blessed by the debris

honey, I’ve had enough

of pompous fisticuffs

the moment to erupt

will surely seem abrupt

inside each drop of dew

the crystal morning view

presents a new breakthrough

The Walk Man’s come for me.



I was born in the heat

of a discotheque fever

with a cassette ghetto blaster

pointed right at my face

the autumn breeze between my teeth

left a taste from the ether

memories and master tapes

that I can never erase

CHORUS

my body’s hanging from the rafters

for the crowd to see

blitzed like a glorious disaster

blessed by the debris

honey, I’ve had enough

of pompous fisticuffs

the moment to erupt

will surely seem abrupt

inside each drop of dew

the crystal morning view

presents a new breakthrough

The Walk Man’s come for me.
