paul shapera - the tunnels beneath new albion 2 lyrics

Loading...

tunnel girl:
they say theres some room here
beneath the streets somewhere
where some robot people they live
this room where they’re livin
they say it’s real hidden
but im gonna find em i will

when daddy was young he’s a scoundrel
with charm and a smile that would shine
with fingers so quick and so nimble
cash flowed through his hands just like wine

he showed all them good times to mama
she says he swept her off her feet
then they got a small flat
with his questionable cash
and then they had helen and me

i never did know him
when he was young and happy and smiled
they say that the good times
were before i was alive

smokes dont light right in the rain
your smokes dont light right in the rain
your smokes dont light right in the rain
daddy got into some trouble
and so they crushed one of his hands
mom left when the good times had ended
and then daddy just drank and got mad

he’d take it all out on poor helen
the bruises she had, what a sight
but one day he let loose
and was slappin me too
and helen stabbed him right there with a knife

i know if id just known him early
he’d’a been so much sweeter to me
we’d be like them girls in the park there
on the playground on sundays in spring

with daddys who were always smiling
protecting their girls if they cried
always telling them nice things
like i love you, im glad youre alive

theres gotta be something
worth saving in each
theres gotta be something
worth saving in me
smokes dont light right in the rain
your smokes dont light right in the rain
your smokes dont light right in the rain

we did okay out on the streets then
helen and me we got by
til all of that talk about voices
robots talkin to her in her mind
