The Fall - Winter (Hostel-Maxi) lyrics
[The Fall - Winter Hostel-Maxi lyrics]
Entrances uncovered
Street signs you never saw
All entrances delivered courtesy winter
You got Manny in the library
Working off his hangover 3: 30
You get the spleen at 3: 15 but it's 3: 13
The mad kid walked left-side
South-side towards me he was about 7
His mother was a cleaning lady
She had a large black dog
And the mad kid said: "Gimme the lead
Gimme the lead gimme the lead"
I'd just walked past the
Alcoholics' dry-out house
The lawn was littered with cans of Barbican
There was a feminist's Austin
Maxi parked outside
With anti-nicotine anti-nuclear stickers
On the side
On the inside and they didn't even smoke
Anyway two weeks before the mad
Kid had said to me "I'll take both of you on
I'll take both of you on"
Then he seemed the young one
He had a parka on and
A black cardboard Archbishop's hat
With a green-fuzz skull and crossbones
He'd just got back from
The backward kids' party
Anyway then he seemed the young one
But now he looked like the victim of a pogrom
Entrances uncovered
Street signs you never saw
All entrances delivered courtesy winter
Entrances uncovered
Street signs you never saw
All entrances delivered courtesy winter
Street signs you never saw
All entrances delivered courtesy winter
You got Manny in the library
Working off his hangover 3: 30
You get the spleen at 3: 15 but it's 3: 13
The mad kid walked left-side
South-side towards me he was about 7
His mother was a cleaning lady
She had a large black dog
And the mad kid said: "Gimme the lead
Gimme the lead gimme the lead"
I'd just walked past the
Alcoholics' dry-out house
The lawn was littered with cans of Barbican
There was a feminist's Austin
Maxi parked outside
With anti-nicotine anti-nuclear stickers
On the side
On the inside and they didn't even smoke
Anyway two weeks before the mad
Kid had said to me "I'll take both of you on
I'll take both of you on"
Then he seemed the young one

A black cardboard Archbishop's hat
