Their lives are a mystery
They make it their career
In the single files of history
Fall and disappear
Swearing they'll get even
With all those other creeps
Philistines and heathens
They violently sleep
Or steal from cigarette machines
Just for the change
To get back to where they've been
A doorway in the rain
Back in the confession box
Back in the slums
Desire burns like chicken pox
Underneath the thumb
A refugee from purgatory
In a purple robe of scorn
At the holy ghost's observatory
Wears a crown of thorns
Turns out she's a gringo
A hard circumstance
Limbo baby limbo
They wanna see you dance
Take the tradesman's entrance
Take it out on a tramp
Every fucking sentence
Complains about the damp
The only girl is a faint cry
In the garden of cement
Wait until the paint dries
It's a big event
Look through heaven's windows
With their opalescent panes
Limbo baby limbo
Down the boulevard of shame
St. Margaret dies intact
Hardly seems alert
The stone gaze denies the facts
Her face hurts
The extra-legal image
The cold cream skin
The regal gimmicks
Did you in
Look through heaven's windows
You see the powder blue veil
The cover girl of limbo
The sweetheart of the jail
Gypsy babies hopscotch
Outside the silver gates
The witch doctors wristwatch
Stuck at five to eight
A bad break a slight ache
Is everyone's complaint
Flesh flakes like angel cake
From mugshots of the saints
Who fell from a window
Was never seen again
