|A working-class face glares back
At me from the glass, and lurches:
"Forgive me, on the streets I ran
  Turned sickness into popular song"
 
Streets of wet-black holes
On roads you can never know
You never have them
But they always have you
Till the day that you croak
It's no joke
 
A working-class face glares back
At me from the glass, and lurches:
"Forgive me, on the streets I ran
  Turned sickness into unpopular song"
 
And all these streets can do
Is claim to know the real you
And warn: if you don't leave you will kill or be killed
Which isn't very nice
Here, everybody's friendly
But nobody's friends
Dear God when will I be
Where I should be?
 
And when the palmist said:
"One Thursday you will be dead,"
I said:
"No, not me - this cannot be
  Dear God, take him, take them, take anyone
  The still-born, the new-born, the infirm - take anyone
  Take people from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - just spare me"

Lyrics

A working-class face glares back

At me from the glass, and lurches: "Forgive me, on the streets I ran Turned sickness into popular song"

Streets of wet-black holes On roads you can never know You never have them But they always have you Till the day that you croak It's no joke

A working-class face glares back At me from the glass, and lurches: "Forgive me, on the streets I ran Turned sickness into unpopular song"

And all these streets can do Is claim to know the real you And warn: if you don't leave you will kill or be killed Which isn't very nice Here, everybody's friendly But nobody's friends Dear God when will I be Where I should be?

And when the palmist said: "One Thursday you will be dead," I said: "No, not me - this cannot be Dear God, take him, take them, take anyone The still-born, the new-born, the infirm - take anyone Take people from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - just spare me"
