The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway (2008 Remsater) - Genesis (创世纪)

Written by：Steve Hacke

Early morning Manhattan

Ocean winds blow on the land

Movie-Palace is now undone

The all-night watchmen have had their fun

Sleeping cheaply on the midnight show

It's the same old ending time to go

Get out

It seems they cannot leave their dream

There's something moving

In the sidewalk steam

And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Nightime's flyers feel their pains

Drugstore take down the chains

Metal motion comes in bursts

The gas station can quench that thirst

Suspension cracked on unmade road

The trucker's eyes read 'Overload'

And out on the subway

Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid

Exits into daylight spraygun hid

And the lamb lies down on Broadway

The lamb seems right out of place

Yet the Broadway street scene

Finds a focus in it's face

Somehow it's lying there

Brings a stillness to the air

Though man made light

At night is very bright

There's no whitewash victim

As the neons dim to the coat of white

Rael Imperial Aerosol Kid

Wipes his gun he's forgotten what he did

And the lamb lies down on Broadway

Suzanne tired her work all done

Thinks money honey be on neon

Cabman's velvet glove sounds the horn

And the sawdust king spits out his scorn

Wonder women you can draw your blind

Don't look at me I'm not your kind

I'm Rael

Something inside me has just begun

Lord knows what I have done

And the lamb lies down on Broadway

On Broadway On Broadway

They say the lights are

Always bright on Broadway on Broadway

They say there's always magic in the air

On Broadway

They say the lights are

Always bright on Broadway

On Broadw
