The big man arrives[00:00:17]

Disco dancers greet him[00:00:21]

Plainclothes cops greet him[00:00:25]

Small town big man fresh lipstick glistening[00:00:29]

Sophomore jive[00:00:38]

From victims of typewriters[00:00:42]

The band sounds like typewriters[00:00:45]

The big man he's not listening[00:00:55]

His eyes hold edith[00:00:58]

His left hand holds his right[00:01:06]

What does that hand desire[00:01:09]

That he grips it so tight[00:01:11]

Edith in the ring[00:01:22]

The passed-over girls are conferring[00:01:25]

The man with the diamond ring is purring[00:01:31]

All claws for now withdrawn[00:01:35]

One by one they bring[00:01:43]

His renegade stories to her[00:01:46]

His crimes and his glories to her[00:01:50]

In challenge they look on[00:01:56]

Women he has wanted grow old too soon[00:02:03]

He tilts their tired faces[00:02:10]

Gently to the spoon[00:02:17]

Edith in his bed[00:02:24]

A plane in the rain is humming[00:02:27]

The wires in the walls are humming[00:02:32]

Some song-some mysterious song[00:02:38]

Bars in her head[00:02:45]

Beating frantic and snowblind[00:02:50]

Romantic and snowblind[00:02:52]

She says-his crime belongs[00:02:57]

Edith and the kingpin[00:03:05]

Each with charm to sway[00:03:09]

Are staring eye to eye[00:03:12]

They dare not look away[00:03:20]

You know they dare not look away[00:03:23]
