Thanateros - Into the Otherworld

Dirty Old Town

I met my love
by the gas works wall
dreamed a dream
by the old canal
I kissed my girl
by the factory wall
dirty old town
dirty old town

Now clouds a drifting
across the moon
cats a prowling
on their beat
spring's a girl
in the street at night
dirty old town
dirty old town

I Heard a siren from the docks
saw a train set the night on fire
I smelled the spring
on the smoky wind
dirty old town
dirty old town

I'm going to make me
a good sharp axe
shining steel
tempered in the fire
will chop you down
like an old dead tree
dirty old town
dirty old town

dirty old town
dirty old town
