lyrics

If I were a bird I'd fly to your door
And sing you a song about broken windows.
Though one word might change you, there's nothing to say...
The chance of a lifetime's passed up every day.

(Chorus)
You said it'll be all right
But that was all in my mind
Lady Luck come returning to this tiny good night.
(Ramblin' days gone by)
(She'll be good tonight)

Stripped of your sequins, but not of your charm,
The wires are poison attached to your arms.
So please, please don't you miss Miss Rose
'Cause now that she's gone, you'll wear her clothes.
The dealer is nodding. He smiles and turns.
Watch the wheel spinning, glitter and burn!
Around and around and around she goes
And where she stops everyone knows...
(The bird sings with it's finger...)
The narcotic passion of something that's real
I am seeing double! (I give up the wheel).
And dream little dreams... melt them into my wall.
Wake up with the fever of voices that call.
(Ramblin' days gone by)
(She'll be good tonight)

Torn Boys Los Angeles, California

Formed in 1982 by Jeffrey Clark (vocals, electric guitar) and Kelly Foley (vocals, acoustic guitar) and disbanded by late 1983, Torn Boys lived out their one and a half summers fusing dreamscape lyricism with ultra-’80’s synth rhythms and “Fripp meets Carl Perkins” electric guitar textures, leaving behind a scant recorded legacy before dissolving like the afternoon fog of their Stockton, CA home. ... more
