Cockburn Bruce lyrics
"The Charity Of Night Lyrics"
Big city, Europa, July of 64.
It's 5AM. Weather blowing bitter off the Baltic.
Car slows beside him as he walks, hubcaps slow revolution, jaundiced looking
pockmarked face round and windburn, short greasy black beard.
Couple of language stabs, settle on English.
It's cold.
I give you ride?
Don't you want to kiss me?
This goes on halfway across the cobbled bridge. Driver pulls ahead gets out by
the construction fence, ambles toward a rubbing bulge in his pants. In his
Murarz stawia mur. Dugo stawia mur. Mija go co rok Dzikich ptakw sznur. Najpierw mierzy grunt, Grzski mierzy grunt. Straci butw sto, Zanim zrobi to. Potem kopa d, Wielki kopa d. Kto powied
fingers slide easily around wood grips. As slow as that predator's footsteps
the gun comes out, arm straightens, scythe blade bisecting yellow forehead.

stones.
Chorus:

Like the great wide oceans roll
Haunting hands of memory

Pacific glimmers silver. Moon full over shadow mansion.
West coast. Can't say when.
There is incense and heat-driven scent of flowers. A tongue slides over soft
skin, love pounds in veins, brains buzzing balls of lust. Fingers twine in wet
hair, limbs twist and roll. On the dresser wax drips in slow motion down the
long side of a black candle. Ecstatic halo of flame and pheromone.
