BACK ALLEY DAYS.
music: pehrsson
lyrics: jørgensen

Hey mister have some pity please and spare me a buck
Times are pretty tough and I'm down on my luck
It must be forty hours since I had a meal
No way for you to understand the way I feel

When I was young I thought I had the Midas touch
There wasn't anything impressed me very much
Whenever they would dare me to I'd walk through fire
I knew I had the power of a real live wire

They led me down the steps and let me meet the candyman
I felt my spine exploding when he took my hand
I didn't know that I had wanted it so bad
It's still the best experience I've ever had

CH: Tell me mister where a man can find a friend
When are these back alley days gonna end
Tell me buddy where a man can find some peace
I can't get used to livin' on my knees
I can't get used to livin' on my knees

SOLO

I guess I'm just the kind of guy who'll never learn
I guess that all I wanted was to crash and burn
It's just my cockeyed kind of claim to fame
If I am gonna go down I'm gonna go down in flames

CH:

Chrissie tells me all the time, I could be so much more
I tell her, "What do you know 'bout anything - you're just a fat old whore"
And I go down to Chillytown to have a smile and coke
Feeling like the punchline in somebody's dirty joke
