Luyện nghe bài hát Lost In The Flood

The ragamuffin gunner is returnin' home a hungry runaway
He walks through all alone--"He must be from the fort," he hears the high school girls say
His countryside's burnin' with wolfman fairies in drag for homicide
The hit-and-run sanctuary, 'neath a holy stone they hide
They're breakin' beams and crosses with a reelin' perfection
Nuns run bald Vatican halls, pregnant, pleadin' immaculate conception
And everybody's wrecked on Main Street from unholy blood
Sticker smiles sweet as Gunner deep, his ankles caked in mud
And I said, "Hey, gunner man, that's qucksand, that's quicksand, ain't mud
Have you thrown your to the war, or did you lose them in the flood?"

pure American brother, dull-eyed and empty-faced
Races Sundays in Jersey in a Chevy stock super
He rides 'er low on the hip, on the side he's got "Bound for Glory" in red, and blue flash paint
He leans on the hood telling racing stories, the call him Jimmy the Saint
Well, that blaze-and-noise boy, he's gunnin' that bitch to blastin' point
He head first into a hurricane and disappears into a point
And there's nothin' left but some blood where the body fell, that is, nothin' left that you sell
Just junk all the horizon, a real highwayman's farewell
And I said, "Hey kid, you that's oil? Man, that ain't oil, that's blood"
I wonder he was thinking when he hit that storm, or was he just lost in the flood?

Eighth Avenue in satin shirts whisper in the air
Some storefront incarnation of Maria, she's puttin' on me the
And Bronx's best stands with his hand on his own hardware
Everything stops, you hear quick shots, the cops come up for air
And now the whiz-bang gang uptown, they're shootin' up the street
And that cat from the Bronx starts lettin' loose, but he gets blown off his feet
And some kid comes blastin' the corner, but a cop puts him right away
He lays on the street holding his leg, something in Spanish, still breathing when I walked away
And somebody said, "Hey man, did you see His body hit the street with such a beautiful thud"
I wonder the dude was sayin', or was he just lost in the flood?
Hey man, did you see that, those poor are sure messed up
I wonder what they gettin' into, or were they just lost in the flood?
