david mcwilliams - days of pearly spencer lyrics
a tenement, a dirty street, walked and worn by shoeless feet
inside it’s long and so complete, watched by a shivering sun
old eyes in a small child’s face, watching as the shadows race
through walls and cracks and leave no trace and daylights brightness shuns
the days of pearly spencer
the race is almost run
nose pressed hard on frosted gl-ss
gazing as the swollen m-ss
on concrete fields where grows no gr-ss
stumbles blindly on
iron trees smother the air
but withering they stand and stare through eyes that neither know nor care where the gr-ss is gone
the days of pearly spencer
the race is almost run
pearly where’s your milk white skin?
what’s that stubble on your chin?
it’s buried in the rot gut gin
you played and lost, not won
you played a house that can’t be beat
now look your head’s bowed in defeat
you walked too far along the street where only rats can run
the days of pearly spencer
the race is almost run
the days of pearly spencer
the race is almost run
