Small Fred - Face At The Window lyrics

In the stillness of the alley waits a man with an open blade

And he hurts the woman badly and within her plants his seed

She can't shake the dirt and horror as the seed takes root and grows

But the law now claims her body, the doctor's door is closed

She goes back to another alley to a leering butcher's blade

And the deal is dark and bloody in the crime the law has made.

CHORUS:

And the face at the window never blinks never turns away

When you wake in the night to a flashing light

When you burn on judgment day

They have spoke aloud your daydreams

They have listened to your plans

They have watched you dance in the rainstorm

They have seen you ride the wind.

Walking slowly home at night a man touching a man

And the car looks kind of familiar and it's coming round again

You got no chance in that deadly dance when they cut you to the bone

There's a bleeding gash from the broken glass and you hear somebody moanSmall Fred - Face At The Window - http://motolyrics.com/small-fred/face-at-the-window-lyrics.html

And maybe somebody calls the cops and they take their own sweet time

And they say it's just a couple of fags again and maybe your friend is dying.

CHORUS

And your lover comes to you softly and you touch and you feel no shame

And you steal away from the city and lightning fills your veins

In an air-conditioned office the committee discusses your case

They know the words you whispered they felt the flush upon your face.

They have files on every fantasy, who's on top and who's below

You have crossed into the shadow place where outlaws freely roam.

CHORUS

You can drink the lies of paradise while the books on the shelves disappear

You can make a comfortable living, you can swear it can't happen here

And maybe they'll come for the unionists and maybe they'll come for the Jews

And maybe they'll come for the heretics but they'll never come for you

When you hear the step in the hallway, when you taste the iron fear

Don't you go shouting out for justice 'cause there's no one left to hear.

CHORUS
