Danny (The Pipes)

Trains out my window
Running in lines
Sleep squared on a knuckle, dreaming on
Drowning softly, clowning sadly, dying badly

Selling flowers to a widow, the money's just fine,
Every week's a new funeral if you time your knocking right.
A vision of Theresa, toothless and tears in her eyes
Pouring on the podium, still the river’s all bone-dry

Danny are you listening?
The pipes, the pipes are choking
The roses are out of season
We find red in the eyes of the lionised bleeders
Danny are you listening?
The pipes, the pipes are choking
The roses are out of season
We find red in the eyes of the bleeders we lionise

Your skin begins to leather with the creeping of time
Those trains pass your window, each reminding you what's behind
A businessman's cathedral is sacred to any fucker who fights
You fumble around in the porch-light and foot the dog shit on the drive

Danny are you listening?
The pipes, the pipes are choking
All the roses out of season
We find red in the eyes of the lionised bleeders
Danny are you listening?
The pipes, the pipes are choking
The roses are out of season
We find red in the eyes of the bleeders we lionise


Trains out my windows
Running in lines
Sleep squared on a knuckle dreaming on 
Drowning softly, clowning sadly, dying badly

Lyrics:
Davey

I’ll sweat out my instincts
I won’t find I’m falling short
I’ll let fall a peal so strong and so true 
As will colour the church bells in green
And all of the ceiling’s dripping
With a history of sung-out un-bourn kings
All our cups are full of them
We’ll drink in remembrance till all is forgot

But those who sit in silence
And take what they are given
Will never know the feeling
We break our backs for seeking
And those who sit in silence 
And take what they are given
Will never know the feeling
Our fingers shake for stealing

Did we call to be heard by some higher commander?
Something to carry the concrete away
Your bleating falls deaf on a mouth with no ears
And tumbles far short of a decent week’s pay.
And you held a sickness man
Just like the one in your blood
This one ran riddling all of your thoughts
A hunger could never be fed











But those who sit in silence
And take what they are given
Will never know the feeling
We break our backs for seeking
And those who sit in silence 
And take what they are given
Will never know the feeling
Our fingers shake for stealing

And I call to you, Davey, to sing
‘Tween cigarettes smoked in twos or threes
You were never as old as your teeth
I found out from your mother you died in your sleep
I found out from your mother you died
I found out from your mother you died in your sleep
I found out from your mother you died in your sleep
