The Days Of Pearly Spencer - Marc Almond[00:00:00]

Written by：Marc Almond/David MacWilliams/David Mcwilliams[00:00:01]

A tenement a dirty street[00:00:36]

Walked and worn by shoeless feet[00:00:39]

Inside it's long and so complete[00:00:41]

Watched by a shivering sun[00:00:43]

Old eyes in a small child's face[00:00:47]

Watching as the shadows race[00:00:49]

Through walls and cracks and leave no trace[00:00:51]

And daylight's brightness shuns[00:00:53]

The days of pearly spencer[00:01:01]

The race is almost run[00:01:10]

Nose pressed hard on frosted glass[00:01:15]

Gazing as the swollen mass[00:01:17]

On concrete fields where grows no grass[00:01:19]

Stumbles blindly on[00:01:22]

Iron trees smother the air[00:01:26]

But withering they stand and stare[00:01:27]

Through eyes that neither know nor care[00:01:30]

Where the grass is gone[00:01:32]

The days of pearly spencer[00:01:39]

The race is almost run[00:01:48]

Pearly where's your milk white skin[00:01:54]

What's that stubble on your chin[00:01:56]

It's buried in the rot gut gin[00:01:58]

You played and lost not won[00:02:00]

You played a house that can't be beat[00:02:04]

Now look your head's bowed in defeat[00:02:06]

You walked too far along the street[00:02:08]

Where only rats can run[00:02:10]

The days of pearly spencer[00:02:18]

The race is almost run[00:02:27]

The days of pearly spencer[00:02:36]

The race is almost run[00:02:45]

The race is almost run[00:02:50]

A tenement a dirty street[00:03:23]

Remember worn and shoeless feet[00:03:26]

Remember how you stood to beat[00:03:30]

The way your life had gone[00:03:33]

So pearly don't you shed more tears[00:03:37]

For those best forgotten years[00:03:41]

Those tenements are memories[00:03:44]

Of where you've risen from[00:03:48]

The days of pearly spencer[00:03:57]

The race is almost won[00:04:09]
