Billy was a vampire Carving out an empire Strolling Pirate's Alley in the middle of the night Buy a round of cocktails Spinning sordid fables in the twilight That's all right Scattered words that matter It's a disaster in the making Take the time to smell the leaves beneath the trees That's all right Well my whole life has gone haywire I'm just a blade bending in your shade For your love I'm a vampire Strolling the ways of Esplanade Headed up to Pittsburgh Heard you could get a pretty good sandwich For fifteen and a dime I miss that old stretch of road Down to the Bayou In the middle of the night Guilt by association SongtexteThe mere smell of speculation conjures up hell Feel the touch of oil from the tankers upon the breeze That's all right All my life has gone haywire I'm just a blade bending in your shade For your love I'm a vampire Strolling the ways of Esplanade That's my whole life in a nutshell Take it as you will I can hear that old brass band Playing our song down the hill Won't you smile, smile, smile Won't you smile, smile, smile... Won't you smile the smile That fills the room with an independent light But that's all right Aus Songtexte Mania
