(Shane MacGowan and Jem Finer)
|
Life's a bitch, then you die
|
Black Hell
|
Hell's ditch - naked howling freedom
|
The killer's hands are bound with chains
|
At six o'clock it starts to rain
|
He'll never see the dawn again
|
Our lady of the flowers
|
|
Genet's feeling Ramon's dick
|
The guy in the bunk above gets sick
|
In the cell next door the lunatic
|
Starts screaming for his mother
|
|
Black dildo, black hell,
|
As the Spanish cops ridiculed my gel
|
A mugshot I remember well
|
Little man how you have suffered
|
|
I could hear the screams from up above
|
If it ain't a fist it isn't love
|
As for our lady she kneels down
|
Her neck is bent, the blade comes down
|
Doing! There goes the breakfast bell
|
Back from heaven, back to hell
|
Naked howling freedom - Hell's Ditch
