Bing Cant Walk — текст песни (Stan Ridgway)

If youve got a friend that you want messed up

Just meet me on the corner by the tail of the pup2

Ill be there soon if youll wait a while

Itll be just one punch for my « patients (patience? ) »

And a drawer full of dirty shirts

Well find out just who hurtscccause



Chorus:

Bing cant walk

Bob broke both his legs

Bing cant walk

Bob broke both his legs







Youre the one that Ill remember most of all tonight

Someone let go of my string, Im fallin down like a broken kite

Whos to say, and whos to knowccthey dont know what I know

Theres something out there floatin free

Anything I had is tangled up in the branches of a hangmans tree





Chorus repeat





Like a punch in the face or a kick in the groin

Theres nothin goin downccgoin down but the dollar and the coin





Greasy little fingers point to ugly little lies

Hide them in a hope chest in an attic in van nuys

Trusted friendships can go sourccbetrayal in the midnight hour

Just remembercci hate to lose





Theres something out there floatin free

Anything I had is tangled up in the branches of a hangmans treecccause





Bing cant walk

Bing cant walk





Chorus repeat





A touch of sin could break your back

Or scramble up your eggs





But then Ive got a personal code

I just hit em on the head, throw em in a trunk,

And then I drive on down the road

Ha.
