Tom Verlaine A Town Called Walker
(Verlaine)
Janey's going back to Walker, says folks
there are happy bees. I said you remember Walker
you lookin for some misery? It's not their
tricks that I mind... it's just the way they say
"we" all the time.
That town's not a number, it's simply gone numb.
They'll finish you off there before you've begun.
Janey's going back to Walker. Papa says you're so
corrupt.
Mama says you mind your pa. Brother Al he's lost his
voice
and sister says she's just a claw.
Folks there in Walker they've got their fun.
They'll count you out there before you've begun.
Expecting exciting and new lights to be shining
on anyone who can find someone else there to blame,
folks there in Walker are falling in love with their
shame. Janey's going back to Walker.
