lyrics

Tony is by the wall kissing his girlfriend
David is up in the window
and now he has an idea for a song
The guard in the guardtower
He moves his gun to his other shoulder
Iggy is on the sidewalk
just trying to come clean

Oh it's one of those autumn days
everything so dangerously grey
The street is quiet now
and I have nothing to say
How come, how come
you took the words away

It's a three part program
I'm still on the first part
We walked across the bridge
in the fading evening light
and the birds rush away
and you brush the hair from your face

It's getting cold now
what happened to these words
you took the words away

We didn't talk at all
was the radio on?
That I don't remember
We are by the Wall again
and the guard moves his gun
to his other shoulder
I'm in the firing line
and you are in the firing line too

"Satisfied with his care and the width of his belly, Lewis escaped and returned to San Francisco, where he was arrested after ripping open his clothing and asking passersbys to witness the divine light that burned in his breast."
