Limbo(Baby Limbo)

Limbo (Baby Limbo) - John Cooper Clarke[00:00:00]

Their lives are a mystery[00:00:35]

They make it their career[00:00:37]

In the single files of history[00:00:40]

Fall and disappear[00:00:43]

Swearing they'll get even[00:00:46]

With all those other creeps[00:00:49]

Philistines and heathens[00:00:51]

They violently sleep[00:00:54]

Or steal from cigarette machines[00:00:57]

Just for the change[00:01:00]

To get back to where they've been[00:01:02]

A doorway in the rain[00:01:05]

Back in the confession box[00:01:13]

Back in the slums[00:01:16]

Desire burns like chicken pox[00:01:18]

Underneath the thumbs[00:01:21]

A refugee from purgatory[00:01:24]

Wears a crown of thorns[00:01:32]

Turns out she's a gringo[00:01:35]

Of hard circumstance[00:01:37]

Limbo Baby Limbo[00:01:40]

They want to see you dance[00:01:43]

Take the tradesman's entrance[00:01:54]

Take it out on a tramp[00:01:57]

Every f**king sentence[00:01:59]

Complains about the damp[00:02:02]

The only girl is a faint cry[00:02:05]

In the garden of cement[00:02:07]

Wait until the paint dries[00:02:11]

It's a big event[00:02:13]

Look through heaven's window[00:02:16]

With their opalescent panes[00:02:18]

Limbo Baby Limbo[00:02:21]

Down the Boulevard of shame[00:02:23]

Saint Margaret dies intact[00:02:33]

Hardly seems alert[00:02:35]

Her stone gaze denies the fact[00:02:38]

Her face hurts[00:02:41]

The extra legal image[00:02:43]

The cold cream skin[00:02:46]

The regal gimicks[00:02:49]

Did you in[00:02:52]

Look through heaven's window[00:02:54]

You see the powder blue veil[00:02:56]

The cover girl of limbo[00:02:59]

The sweetheart of the jail[00:03:02]

Gypsy babies hop-scotch[00:03:08]

Outside the silver gates[00:03:10]

The witch doctor's wristwatch[00:03:13]

Is stuck at five-to-eight[00:03:16]

A bad break, a slight ache[00:03:18]

Is every ones compaint[00:03:21]

Flesh flakes like angel cake[00:03:24]

From mug-shots of the saints[00:03:27]

Who fell from a window[00:03:29]

Was never seen again[00:03:32]

'Til he turns up in limbo[00:03:35]

In a doorway in the rain[00:03:37]

A hero rides to heaven[00:03:51]

The public only rots[00:03:54]

For a fraction of forever[00:03:56]

In a designated spot[00:03:59]

Eternally paralysed[00:04:02]

A morbid orbit shift[00:04:05]

Halfway to paradise[00:04:08]

Stuck in the lifts[00:04:11]

Some smart crackin' bimbo[00:04:13]

Say's you can't be employed[00:04:15]

Sends you off to limbo[00:04:18]

On the stairway to a void[00:04:21]
