lyrics

TUESDAY APOCALYPSE #13

Cinderella mends her dancing shoes
she’s getting ready for the ball
and Adam banging his binlids
he’s getting ready for the fall
she sits on the sidewalk
and lights a cigarette
he’s been waiting there years
but he hasn’t met her yet

The cathedrals have gone quiet
now they’re museums for the ghosts
of those who lived in the castles
and those who moved in from the coast
everybody’s got new clothes
even the emperor lying in state
except for the starving children
who wait outside his gate

Just another autumn afternoon
in the middle of March
down on
down on Dawson Street

Emma said she didn’t love him
but she never was too sure
she’d work all day building celebrity rifles
which fitted in with the wishes
of all the poor
she’d put on her black dress
pull her coat right up to her eyes
talk all night about success
and how she’d never be surprised

Well they pulled down the café
where we used to meet
down on
down on Dawson Street

The kids coming out of school
have discovered a new joyride
they’d steal the keys from the company
get in the cars and drive
past the window where you watch them
underneath the infinite moon
I don’t know where you are now but inevitably
inevitably I’ll be there soon

And though you never call me
and we never meet
I guess one day I just might still find you walking on down
Dawson Street

If you’ve got something
you’d rather not lose
this is just another
Tuesday Apocalypse Blues
