Lyrics:
Let's go out and dance, darlingOur last of daysAnd grace the game with a blindfold onThe cheaters came to playAnd outside the soft-handed boysScreaming cars and all their speedMusic, math, a hero beggin' changeHis sword across his kneesAnd how he prays to find a man to blameFor every sleepless night he spendsAnd for every well that he warned me ofBut wound up fallin' inAnd then for the kids beneath the balconyWho disregard the rainTo make sure the king won't grantThe dead man one more dayLet's go out and see, darlingWhat shines tonightAnd temper your dream about the dying horseWith traffic noise and lightAnd somewhere the soft-handed boysBleeding hearts and worker beesGive to the holy mother begging changeChrist across her kneesAnd oh how she prays to find a man to blameFor every loveless night she waitsAnd for every gun that she frowned uponBut still some fucker madeAnd then for the kid beneath the balconyBehind the garbage canWho waits for the king to comeAnd hold his sweating hand
