Marc Almond - Shinning Sinners Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Well Im walkin blind down danger street
  • The street where eyes dont dare to meet
  • Dirt-doorways frame silhouettes
  • A teeth-grind-grinning smile of threat
  • Down here you ask for all you get
  • These east side angrysll getchoo yet
  • Ignore the cat calls look straight ahead
  • You could wind up the other side of dead
  • (if youre lucky)
  • Well I took a glance sideways
  • Straight into some chicano chicks eyes
  • They were pretty wild
  • Like shed been snortin some of that cocaine
  • She was mean for trouble
  • Boilin for blood
  • But I had to say she was stacked
  • >from the tip of her toes
  • To her flaming red hair
  • Shes gonna drag me up to her carnal cage of no way out desire
  • Help, help
  • You gotta help yourself
  • Help me, help me
  • You son of a gun
  • You gotta run muchacho run
  • Well I was getting to know the neighbourhood
  • Getting to know how it looked and smelled
  • Watching the windows
  • In tenement hell
  • Love was rape
  • And love for sale
  • And death a fact of life
  • Love was rare
  • But who cares, who cares
  • When youre living by the knife
  • Well I took a slug of bitter coffee
  • Pulled a face as bitter hit me
  • End up with a new mouth
  • Carved where my throat used to be
  • And then I saw him
  • Tall and proud
  • Wearing the entire city garbage dump
  • Around his neck and wrists
  • And then I saw him
  • Dirty red chicano sweat bandanna
  • And colours
  • Held together by filth and fury
  • Oh wow-ee-ow
  • The leader of the shining sinners
  • The leader of the shining sinners
  • And she was by his side
  • This vampira Id seen earlier
  • She looked at me the look of scum
  • Help, help
  • You gotta help yourself
  • Help me, help me
  • You son of a gun
  • You gotta run muchacho run
  • He walked
  • Did I say walked?
  • Well I mean waaalked
  • Right up to me at a slow pace
  • He looked down at me and said
  • Shee-it!
  • My knees were bucklin
  • My brow was sweatin
  • I stared straight ahead at his knee cap
  • I had to strike soon
  • The leader of the shining sinners
  • Sweet n sharp and
  • Cool n calm
  • He lives for them
  • They die for him
  • Bitten through with nails of hatred
  • He takes his band of laughing dead
  • To gather up the wages of skin
  • Keep my eyes upon the pavement
  • Nothing else could save me
  • In this battlefield of blood and bruises
  • Ill take this brave stiletto
  • And with all the courage left in my heart
  • Ill . . . Ill take the life of the leader of the shining sinners
  • He lay upon the ground
  • Coughing up blood
  • He looked up at me
  • Yes I was the big one now
  • And said
  • I wanted to shake your hand
  • You little runt
  • For having the guts to walk into my neighbourhood
  • I liked you!
  • And with that he died
  • Leaderless and laughless
  • The wastrels of the shining sinners
  • Lay me out like some dead cat on the ground
  • I taste the taste of human filth
  • My courage caves in on itself
  • Now no-ones leading anyone anymore
  • And I wondered what I did it for
  • And I wondered what I did it for
  • Why did I do it?
  • Why?
  • Why did I do it?
  • Why - why did I do it?
  • Why?
  • Why?
  • Why?
