Seks Bomba: Somewhere In This Town

Sep 17, 2007 21:49

I couldn't find the lyrics anywhere, so here is the best I can manage by ear. It's a great song from a great band, and it reminds me of all the little things that happen all the time all over the place that you never know about. :)

There's a red rose in a garden
Behind a fence and a wall
Where nobody sees it at all

There's a pool game in a basement
Where the players take their cues
From a jukebox playing (?) and blues <--- can't recognize that word... :(

And she's somewhere in this town
Maybe at a party with some clown
Who only wants what he imagines she imagines

There's a park bench in a park
Where lawyers, cops and bums
Watch pigeons fight for crumbs

A few blocks north you pass a building
And it's maybe her address
You wouldn't even know to guess

And she's somewhere in this scene
Maybe at a window looking pretty
Much like you'd imagine she might look now

There's a phone in an apartment
She picks it up and dials
A number she's had for awhile

A couple rings and it's the machine again
And before she speaks at all
She puts it back on the wall

And you're somewhere in this town
Maybe buying drinks for a girl you found
Who only wants what she imagines you imagine she only wants
Maybe later you'll stay too long
Maybe you'll get lucky, maybe you'll go home
Maybe there's a message on the phone
Maybe a dial tone
It doesn't matter...

lyrics, music
