Mother said i can't listen to Radio Havana
|
And i read with a flash light late that night
|
on these North side streets try avoiding the lights
|
Try avoiding any type of political fight
|
So alone are all these "new deal" homes
|
It can't only matter what you know
|
But how you let your anger show
|
Harold Washington in a garter-belt and stockings
|
Father wasn't picking sides
|
But dog-eared pages gave clues to the thoughts inside
|
The black sheep prince bowed for the crown today
|
Tried keeping things quiet, tried keeping things still
|
Tried keeping this conscience from an honest chill
|
Can tradition settle in like rust?
|
The record knows so let it show
|
That desperate is as clever does
|
Harry Carry making sick off Clark Street
|
Welcome to my 588-2300 empire.
