King Crimson - Radio I Lyrics
---------- Album: Red ---------- -------------------- Artist: King Crimson -------------------- 1. Red (Instrumental) 2. Fallen Angel Tears of joy at the birth of a brother Never alone from that time Sixteen Years through knife fights and danger Strangely why his life not mine West side skyline crying Fallen angel dying Risk a life to make a dime Lifetimes spent on the streets of a city Make us the people we are Switchblade stings in one tenth of a moment Better get back to the car Snow white side streets of cold New York City Stained with his blood it all went wrong Sick and tired blue wicked and wild God only knows for how long Fallen angel Fallen angel West side skyline Crying for an angel dying Life expiring in the city Fallen angel... 3. One More Red Nightmare Pan American nightmare Ten thousand feet fun-fair Convinved that I don't care It's safe as houses I swear I was just sitting musing The virtues of cruising When altitude dropping My ears started popping One more red nightmare Sweat beginning to pour down My neck as I turn round I heard fortune shouting Just get off of this outing A farewell swan song See you know how turbulence can be The stewardess made me (*see note*) One more red nightmare Reality stirred me My angel had heard me The prayer had been answered A reprieve has been granted The dream was now broken Thought rudely awoken Really safe and sound Asleep on the Greyhound One more red nightmare 4. Providence (Instrumental) 5. Starless Sundown dazzling day Gold through my eyes But my eyes turned within Only see Starless and bible black Ice blue silver sky Fades into grey To a grey hope that oh years to be Starless and bible black Old friend charity Cruel twisted smile And the smile signals emptiness For me Starless and bible black Lyrics taken without permission from a Japanese recording of Red *Note, though it is not listed there is a one after "The stewardess..." I believe it is "But the captain forbade me" could be that the CD is definitive edition, the lyrics may not be, but I really don't know, it's not unusual for thigs to be odd like that (Ohh, that made sense) -MJF
