Bruce Springsteen - The Angel Lyrics
The angel rides with hunch-backed children, poison oozing from his engineWieldin love as a lethal weapon, on his way to hubcap heavenBaseball cards poked in his spokes, his boots in oil hes patiently soakedThe roadside attendant nervously jokes as the angels tires strokes his precious pavementThe interstates choked with nomadic hordes in volkswagen vans with full running boards dragging great anchorsFollowin dead-end signs into the soresThe angel rides by humpin his hunk metal whoreMadison avenues claim to fame in a trainer bra with eyes like rainShe rubs against the weather-beaten frame and asks the angel for his nameOff in the distance the marble dome reflects across the flatlands with a ***** feel off into parts unknownThe woman strokes his polished chrome and lies beside the angels bones
