Down on the place

The pizza the square

In the street

On the strada



Watching the blood flow

Down where the boy goes

Down where the bloods flow



Smiling like you've looked at death

And liked it - What could be better

Me I never get what I want and don't want

What I have



In the dirty trees

By the Dirty river

Hot summer city

Muggy afternoon air

Mosquitoes humming

'round our heads

Cars stream over nearby bridge

Blood streams down my arm

I always wondered what went on

In places like this a part

Of me always wanted to be a part

Of what went on in places like this

Down where the blood flow

Down where the bot goes

Watching the blood flow



You say you say

You like it that way

And you need it helter skelter

You wanted to be bad

Born under the sign of blood

You say no

No to any reasonable facsimile of love

That's all out of the question

'cause you always wanted to be

A part of what went on in places like this

But love is out of the question



Smiling like you've looked at death

And liked it - What could be better

Me I never get what I want and don't want

What I have



Down on the place

The pizza the square

In the street

On the strasse



Watching the blood flow

Down where the boy goes

Down where the blood flow



Smiling like you've looked at death

And liked it - What could be better

Me I never get what I want and don't want

What you have
