Jim Carroll - Falling Down Laughing слова песни
He was feeling invulnerableThat was foolish but wonderfulBut of course the first one was always freeHe`s got one wrist in heaven, one ankle in hellSomebody pushed or he just fellHe`s riding the subway watching the lights playred yellow green he`s always somewhere in betweenthe station he wants, the station he needs, and the station where the chickenhawks come to feedRefrain:Since the worm turned he`s learnedThis apple`s a blood-filled tearAnd he falls down laughing, he falls down laughingHe falls down and he disappearsFirst he tried to be pure now he just wants a cureHe`s wasted, his skin`s sore, he`s flat-out poorWhen you live in doubt that`s when your luck runs outHe`s on the roof alone, outside the zoneNow he`s on the street again when he calls him thenBilly just cannot resistNow he`s an orphan sleeping with the coffinsJust like Oliver TwistWell since the worm turned . . .Billy`s tired of the lies, he`s turning every fireLooking for his own pastHe`s limping in the water searching for the quarterInch of clarityHis future is raining blood like starsHe`s fallen so far behindHe might as well be blindWatching late-night film noir inside of stolen carsHis tongue stuck frozen to the monkey barsHis ladder lost its rungs, Billy speaks in tonguesEvery time he`s in the clear his past looks back and sneersBut since the worm turned . . .
