Lou Reed - Dirty Blvd. слова песни
Pedro lives out of the Wilshire Hotel
he looks out a window without glass
The walls are made of cardboard, newspapers on his feet
his father beats him `cause he`s too tired to beg
He`s got 9 brothers and sisters
they`re brought up on their knees
it`s hard to run when a coat hanger beats you on the thighs
Pedro dreams of being older and killing the old man
but that`s a slim chance he`s going to the boulevard
He`s going to end up, on the dirty boulevard
he`s going out, to the dirty boulevard
He`s going down, to the dirty boulevard
This room cost 2,000 dollars a month
you can believe it man it`s true
somewhere a landlord`s laughing till he wets his pants
No one here dreams of being a doctor or a lawyer or anything
they dream of dealing on the dirty boulevard
Give me your hungry, your tired your poor I`ll piss on `em
that`s what the Statue of Bigotry says
Your poor huddled masses, let`s club `em to death
and get it over with and just dump `em on the boulevard
Get to end up, on the dirty boulevard
going out, to the dirty boulevard
He`s going down, on the dirty boulevard
going out
Outside it`s a bright night
there`s an opera at Lincoln Center
movie stars arrive by limousine
The klieg lights shoot up over the skyline of Manhattan
but the lights are out on the Mean Streets
A small kid stands by the Lincoln Tunnel
he`s selling plastic roses for a buck
The traffic`s backed up to 39th street
the TV whores are calling the cops out for a suck
And back at the Wilshire, Pedro sits there dreaming
he`s found a book on magic in a garbage can
He looks at the pictures and stares at the cracked ceiling
"At the count of 3" he says, "I hope I can disappear"
And fly fly away, from this dirty boulevard
I want to fly, from dirty boulevard
I want to fly, from dirty boulevard
I want to fly-fly-fly-fly, from dirty boulevard
I want to fly away
I want to fly
Fly, fly away
I want to fly
Fly-fly away (Fly a-)
fly-fly-fly (-way, ooohhh...)
Fly-fly away (I want to fly-fly away)
fly away (I want to fly, wow-woh, no, fly away)
