King Crimson
Pictures of a City
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Concrete cold face cased in steel
Stark sharp glass-eyed, crack and peel
Bright light, scream beam, brake and squeal
Red white, green white neon wheel
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Dream flesh, love chase, perfumed skin
Greased hand, teeth hide tinseled sin
Spice ice, dance chance, sickly grin
Pasteboard time slot, sweat and spit
[Instrumental Break: "42nd at Treadmill"]
[Verse 3]
Blind stick, blind drunk, cannot see
Mouth dry, tongue tied, cannot speak
Concrete dream flesh, broken shell
Lost soul, lost trace, lost in hell
[Instrumental Outro]
