Beck - Dead Melodies lyrics

where will you go

when this day is over

a gambler`s purse

lays in the road

straight to your door

snakes have gone crazy tonight

winding their way out of sight

laugh, joke

the sentiment wasted

seasons and strangers,

they come and go

the doldrums are pounding

cheapskates are clouding this town

who could disown themselves now

engineer

slow down that old

train

send us in chaff

laugh at the moon

nightbirds will cackle

rotting like apples on trees

send in their dead melodies

to me.
