German Overalls (2006 Digital Remaster) - Peter Hammill[00:00:00]
Mannheim: rainy Saturday with no money nor friend[00:00:01]
Only Tequila can end the boredom [00:00:12]
Try to reach London for a pocket of hope;[00:00:27]
We're children and we grope in the dark [00:00:34]
Hugh spends his last Mark on coffee and cheese[00:00:50]
I feel just like a refugee[00:00:57]
Rathaus-keepers and traffic police [00:01:07]
Middle-aged maids with rotting teeth [00:01:11]
Industrial magazines and old Sunday Times:[00:01:15]
Reading material bleeding lines [00:01:18]
What are we doing here [00:01:23]
Memorial menace eager for revenge [00:01:31]
Has begun to bend our minds [00:01:39]
Shower-curtain imperative in the presence of acid;[00:01:52]
Now feeling placid is death [00:02:00]
I try to hold my breath as the P A comes down[00:02:15]
Here we all are in Ktown [00:02:22]
The Big Wheel never fails to grind around[00:02:32]
It drags me up it drugs me down [00:02:35]
Seven senses wonder Can this be real [00:02:40]
Or am I become a performing seal[00:02:43]
Why are we dying here [00:02:48]
I walk the streets alone try to find a sign of love [00:03:01]
I've crushed the plaster-bone in the freaky clubs [00:03:08]
I have bit the fruit[00:03:16]
But all I live for is to play[00:03:19]
And I'm tired of the nights and the days[00:03:22]
Of airports taxis and motorway showers [00:03:34]
Groping for a key in the afterhours [00:03:38]
David takes to travelling in the van [00:03:43]
He knows that we all can understand:[00:03:46]
We're at the mercy of the Kosmos tour [00:03:51]
Making a pilgrimage to the German Lourdes[00:03:54]
But we're still crippled here [00:03:59]
Cathedrals spiral skywards I think I'm getting vertigo [00:04:44]
I think I don't know what is real [00:04:57]
One more sudden spotlight one more madness is over;[00:05:23]
I must not show a sign of fear [00:05:30]
Words echo round my ears I think I'm going to laugh[00:05:49]
Think I'll just go and take a bath guess I'll wash my clothes [00:05:57]
Don't you know I'll grow to go and make my name [00:06:05]
Maybe be a servant in the Famegame[00:06:10]
Stake my sane and rest my life on the line[00:06:14]
Now lay me asunder and rend my mind[00:06:17]
At the fall of the curtain let this be my ghost[00:06:21]
