Dead Town — текст песни (Hoffsten Louise)

[L. Hoffsten]
A little place where it`s quiet
stop at a five`n dime
he`ll invite you for dinner:
a packet of crackers and a bottle of wine
Postman Bob`s watching tv
learning about romance and love
to get the nasty details
he listens to noise from the apartment above
Livin` in a dead town
acting like it`s near bed time
Livin` in a dead town
where standing out`s the worst of crimes
Considerate Dennis is working
hard by the railroadtrack
but not even his mother
knows that Dennis is a pyromaniac
Scandal Susie is dreaming
livin` in a double life
a moviestar during night-time
but in the day she plays the part of the butcher`s wife
Livin` in a dead town
acting like it`s near bed time
Livin` in a dead town
where standing out`s the worst of crimes
