Palace Memories歌词
Plastic
Palace
People
Scott
Walker.Over
the
rooftop
sails
BillyA
string
tied
to
his
underwearThrough
cobbled
stone
streets
a
child
racesAnd
shouts
"Billy,
come
down
from
there"."My
mother's
calling"
his
voice
whimpersA
string
clutched
in
his
tiny
handNot
till
I've
seen
the
sky's
not
lit
upIn
tears,
child
try
and
understandDon't
pull
the
string,
Don't
bring
me
downDon't
make
me
land.Plastic

silent
songs,

dream
too
longTheir
memories
just
starePlastic

steals
her

deafening
despair.Hurry,
you've
got
to
get
in
lineYour
nose
might
start
to
shineAnd
sweat
it
out
and
dance
aboutThe
whole
eternal
life.A
harvest
of
stars
surrounds
BillyThe
night
clings
to
his
happy
eyesA
sleeping
town
square
beneath
a
fountainA
child
murmurs
