Lyrics:
so we could kick it
Right in front of his lenses, nothing here is malicious
You sat by me in that movie, we went outside for them doobies
We walkin'
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
eat dog world, and that ain't no lie.
Listen! it ain't even safe no more to walk the streets at night,
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine.
Let me tell you
eat dog world, and that ain't no lie.
Listen! it ain't even safe no more to walk the streets at night,
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine.
Let me tell you
Now what kind of beast would love such a feast
Have you no shame?
So we hung the by the feet
Oh, we shot them in the street
Oh, the victory was
Snow's falling slow
From that December sky
Street lights glow
As it passes them by
The world we know
Made new, clothed in white
Time runs slow
Tell her what she wanna hear like I'm her Favorite song
Married to the game control these Streets but she wanna play along
Ever since that check came
the call of redemption
We saw the government fall
And we all spent some nights in detention
Trailers on a lonely street at sunrise
Ready for the night
Weary
iniquities)
When Babylon was built on my back (Antiquities)
Skinned, men, women, and children
For Fabrics, cottons, linens
Atrophy and despair
By your design
I slept last night in a good hotel
I went shopping today for jewels
The wind rushed around in the dirty town
And the children let out from
I slept last night in a good hotel
I went shopping today for jewels
The wind rushed around in the dirty town
And the children let out from
your streets he said and come to me
Come down from the neon nights
Come down from the tourist sights
Run down till the rain delights you
You do not
The stories of the street are mine
The Spanish voices laugh
The Cadillacs go creeping now through the
Night and the poison gas
And I lean from my
but Im still Berthas church boy
Grew up
South Memphis made us all screw ups
Never known whos what
Gotta keep a tool tucked
Eastside frank street where
sniffin' Ra while sellin' cocaine
Trapped in the game, not knowin' how to stop and get by
To live it alive, so instead they live it to die
Can we please have
When the rain stopped from falling
It was almost too late
We heard voices there calling
Turned back from the gate
On the streets there was brawling
of arrested trees divide the street from the gutter
As the sunset shudders at the prospect or night
On the children malled in and mauling their brethren
the celebration!
This evening is pronounced in my memories by the amount of laughter and talking and pictures and trying to make up for lost time in one night. This
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
to say
"Hello, haven't seen you on this bus before"
I gave her a look that said
"Huh, life is funny, you never know what's in store
By the way, your hair
The mansion on the hill
At night my daddy'd take me and we'd ride
Through the streets of a town so silent and still
Park on a back road along the highway
I lived in a town way down south
By the name of Buffalo
Worked in the mill with the rest of the trash
As we're often called you know
You factory
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
eat dog world, and that ain't no lie.
Listen! it ain't even safe no more to walk the streets at night,
I'm doin' fine, on cloud nine.
Let me tell you
