The Days of Pearly Spencer (珀利·斯宾塞的日子) - David McWilliams[00:00:00]

A tenement a dirty street[00:00:20]

Walked and worn by shoeless feet[00:00:24]

Inside it's long and so complete[00:00:28]

Watched by a shivering sun[00:00:33]

Old eyes in a small child's face[00:00:40]

Watching as the shadows race[00:00:45]

Through walls and cracks and leave no trace[00:00:49]

And daylight's brightness shuns[00:00:54]

The days of pearly spencer[00:01:07]

The race is almost run[00:01:26]

Nose pressed hard on frosted glass[00:01:38]

Gazing as the swollen mass[00:01:43]

On concrete fields where grows no grass[00:01:47]

Stumbles blindly on[00:01:52]

Iron trees smother the air[00:01:59]

But withering they stand and stare[00:02:04]

Through eyes that neither know nor care[00:02:08]

Where the grass is gone[00:02:13]

The days of pearly spencer[00:02:26]

The race is almost run[00:02:44]

Pearly where's your milk white skin[00:02:57]

What's that stubble on your chin[00:03:01]

It's buried in the rot-gut gin[00:03:06]

You played and lost not won[00:03:09]

You played a house that can't be beat[00:03:17]

Now look your head's bowed in defeat[00:03:21]

You walked too far along the street[00:03:26]

Where only rats can run[00:03:31]

The days of pearly spencer[00:03:44]

The race is almost run[00:04:03]

The days of pearly spencer[00:04:22]

The race is almost run[00:04:40]
