Plastic Palace People - Scott Walker[00:00:01]
Over the rooftop sails billy[00:00:10]
A string tied to his underwear[00:00:17]
Through cobbled stone streets a child races[00:00:24]
And shouts billy come down from there[00:00:31]
My mother's calling his voice whimpers[00:00:39]
A string clutched in his tiny hand[00:00:46]
Not till i've seen the sky's not lit up[00:00:54]
In tears child try and understand[00:01:01]
Don't pull the string don't bring me down[00:01:08]
Don't make me land[00:01:16]
Plastic palace people[00:01:33]
Sing silent songs they dream too long[00:01:38]
Their memories just stare[00:01:44]
Plastic palace alice[00:01:49]
She steals her cards tomorrow deals[00:01:54]
With deafening despair[00:01:59]
Hurry you've got to get in line[00:02:06]
Your nose might start to shine[00:02:13]
And sweat it out and dance about[00:02:17]
The whole eternal life[00:02:22]
A harvest of stars surrounds billy[00:02:40]
The night clings to his happy eyes[00:02:48]
A sleeping town square beneath a fountain[00:02:55]
A child murmurs a weary sigh[00:03:02]
My mother weeps and weaves her hair[00:03:09]
With worries please come down from there[00:03:17]
Plastic palace people[00:03:41]
Through fields of clay and granite grey[00:03:47]
They play without a sound[00:03:52]
Plastic palace alice[00:03:57]
Blows gaping holes to store her fears[00:04:02]
Inside her lovers head[00:04:08]
Listen they're laughing in the halls[00:04:14]
They rip your face with lies[00:04:21]
To buzzing eyes you cry for help[00:04:26]
Like gods they bark replies[00:04:30]
Over the rooftops burns billy[00:04:49]
Balloon sadly the string descends[00:04:55]
Searching its way down through blue submarine air[00:05:03]
The polka dot underwear[00:05:12]
To meet the trees in morning square[00:05:18]
Just hanging there just hanging there[00:05:25]
