2. PHILBY
Now
ain't it strange that I feel like Philby,
There's
a stranger in my soul
I'm
lost in transit in a lonesome city
I
can't come in from the cold
I'm
deep in action on a secret mission
Contact's
broken down
Time
drags by, I'm above suspicion,
There's
a voice on the telephone
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2x
Well
it sure is dark in this clockwork city
Contact's
never gonna show
I've
got a code which can't be broken,
My
eyes never seem to close
Well,
I'm standing here in the silent city
Shadows
falling down
I'n
disconnected but I don't need pity,
The
night's gonna burn on slow.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2x
Now
ain't it funny that I feel like Philby,
A
stranger on a foreign shore.
I've
got my plans and I must move quickly,
There's
a knock upon the door.
Still
in transit and I'm close to danger,
My
cover can't be blown,
It's
getting strange and it's getting crazy,
Tell
me, what is going on?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 2x
Four
o'clock and nothing's moving,
Six
o'clock and the daylight's stirring,
Morning
comes, must be moving on.
All
night long my mind's been burning,
Makes
me feel such a long, long way from home, home
Now
ain't it strange that I feel like Philby,
There's
a stranger in my soul
I'm
lost in transit in a lonesome city
I
can't come in from the cold

AT THE DEPOT
![]() |
Well,
I'm hanging around the depot, boys,
Trying
to get a job,
I'm
so sick and tired of being laid off,
No
silver lining, no rainbow's end,
Bills
in my mailbox, that's all they ever send,
All
they ever send.
Well,
I'm hanging around the corner, boys,
Holding
up the wall,
Feeling
kinda sloppy, waiting for a call.
Running
out of patience, running out of cool,
Don't
turn on the radio, I don't want to hear the news,
Don't
want to hear the news.
Well,
you sure look good, baby, sure look neat,
Sure
make sense from your head to your feet,
You
don't want to know me now, but you're gonna change your mind,
I'm
going to Fat City, gonna do things in style.
Well,
you sure look good, baby, sure look neat,
Sure
make sense from your head to your feet,
Making
all the ice melt when you walk down the street,
Making
all the ice melt when you walk down the street.
You
don't want to know me now, but you're gonna change your mind,
I'm
going to Fat City, gonna do things in style.
Well,
my motor won't run man,
I'm
sure it's on the blink,
Ain't
had no gasoline since God knows when,
I'm
waiting for that woman, ain't she ever gonna show?
Don't
keep me waiting, I got some place else to go,
Some
place else to go.
Well,
I'm hanging round the depot, boys,
Can't
get a job,
I'm
so sick and tired of being laid off,
No
silver lining, no rainbow's end,
Blues
in my mailbox, that's all they ever send,
All
they ever send,
All
they ever send.
6.BAD PENNY
Well,
like a bad penny you have turned up again,
You're
in my sights, there's a mist on my lens.
I
think you know how it was when I tripped and fell,
Well,
you double-dealed me, baby and I broke like a shell.
Like
a bad penny you've sure lost the glow
But
I'm out of reach, your smile's sure gone cold.
Well,
it can't ever be like it was then,
Well,
don't you fool with me, baby,
Don't
you mess with my plans.
Some
stormy nights, your memory haunts me,
You
won't go away.
Well,
like a bad penny you have turned up in the change,
Try
to fit into the picture, you can't get inside the frame.
I
think you know I'm still sore, but I'm on the mend,
Times
sure have changed, it won't happen again.
Well,
like a bad penny spins around and around,
Well,
you won't know what's gone wrong when it all falls down,
You
got to learn from now on to stop playing games,
You
ought to keep on moving, you got to spin on your way.
Some
lonely nights, I hear you calling,
Won't
you go away?
Well,
like a bad penny you have turned up again,
You're
in my sights, there's a mist on my lens.
I
think you know how it was when I tripped and fell,
Well,
you double-dealed me, baby, I cracked like a shell.
