al duvall - harlem sunset lyrics

Loading...

i’ll take you to a harlem sunset
a hypodermic through a park bench
families picking rags at midnight
washer+women in a hop den
ankle+deep in mud and rubbish
beggars dressed in broken fruit crates
gnawing on a butcher’s apr+n

an orphan from a p+wn shop window
shackled to a fat man’s rickshaw
an orgy in a burnt+out streetcar
a barricade of packed+up horseflesh
a bishop in a churchfront clip joint
slips a mickey in the blood wine
crippled hookers work the bread line

a tavern down below the subway
whiskey from a pinetop coffin
fifty cents to take the gaspipe
guttersnipes in bl++dy top hats
dropping bricks on cursing hunchbacks
fingers poking through a steam grate
why don’t you just paint a picture?
