Faces in the shadow When they turn the latch in Tappin at your window Skinny up outta your bedroom Shimmy up on the drain pipe Stand tall on the roof top And let's slip into the night Would you surrender to despair Or go on as if you're unawares Would you let it tear apart your mind Or would you come runnin with our kind? [Tell me, what would you do, If I told you that they lied to you? And the things they said just were not true Tell me what would you do?] SWING BABY! And they'll hate you for what you are boy And they'll say you ought to be ashamed They'll lock you in the pantry Till you learn how to behave But days of ash and cinder Is the good boy's last reward Cause once they got you where they want you They don't want you anymore This song is so fucking awesome. The lyrics are good, the bass line is so strong, it's a little swingy, but not too much, it just feels good. Big Rude Jake. Really good band. Not all of it is swingy, I've been told they're a little like Tom Waits, just slummy. I think they're out of Chicago, but do they ever rock. |
