I drop 5 roses on the ground

Where they dug my Elisabeth down

Once you were the queen of this town

Now just a pile of bones

My Zippo kisses a candle-light

It looks like heat in the winter night

The stars above are shining bright

That picture's quite all right

If there's 1000 different kind of angels

You're the witch on her broom

Filled by loony tunes

I close my eyes and hesitate

Another chance, another fate

Hand in hand down the Golden Gate

As hearts associate

The world's spinning 'round and around

I'm my own, only one

Stranger in my hometown

Start to walk on frozen feet

Counting how fast my heart can beat

A dead planet of grey concrete

Covers a dying town

A grey building arises just where

I removed her underwear

I call the place Elisabeth Square

Your ghost still hangs around

Their big plan is a police station

Soon the cops will hang around

Where I laid her down

My pocket tells me, here's some dimes

My restless nerves scream brown-ale time

I order like it was a crime

The waiter takes his time

The world's spinning 'round and around

I'm my own, only one

Stranger in my hometown

Fuck how fast a soul can fly

I saw my future pass me by

When I saw your star in the sky

The world's spinning 'round and around

I'm still walking on

Tiny unsteady bones

Some empty faces nod hallo

I park my ass, looking out the window

Life's so great sweet cherry

Oh so good to be alive

One pint becomes two and three

We're a cigarette smoke-covered family

I turn my face towards the sea

For another Darkland dive

There's some ship-smoke in the horizon

Where Elisabeth sleeps

In white cotton sheets

Back home I kick off my shoes

Kiss a photo, my love is true

The bullet wasn't meant for you

The world's spinning 'round and around

I'm the lonely one

I'm stone and brown-ale drowned

Damn the day my future died

I made it look like a suicide

The police put the case aside

The world's spinning 'round and around

I'm the lonely one

Wanking by the phone
