Luyện nghe bài hát Lost In The Flood

The ragamuffin gunner is returnin' like a hungry runaway
He walks through town all alone--"He must be from the fort," he the high school girls say
His countryside's burnin' wolfman fairies dressed in drag for homicide
The hit-and-run sanctuary, 'neath a holy stone they hide
They're breakin' beams and crosses with a spastic's reelin'
Nuns run bald through halls, pregnant, pleadin' immaculate conception
And everybody's wrecked on Main Street from unholy blood
Sticker sweet as Gunner breathes deep, his ankles caked in mud
And I said, "Hey, gunner man, that's qucksand, that's quicksand, that mud
you thrown your senses to the war, or did you lose them in the flood?"

That pure brother, dull-eyed and empty-faced
Races Sundays in Jersey in a Chevy super eight
He rides 'er low on the hip, on the side he's got "Bound for Glory" in red, white and blue flash
He leans on the hood telling racing stories, the call him Jimmy the Saint
Well, blaze-and-noise boy, he's gunnin' that bitch loaded to blastin' point
He rides head first into a hurricane and disappears a point
And there's nothin' left but some blood the body fell, that is, nothin' left that you could sell
Just junk all across the horizon, a real farewell
And I said, "Hey kid, you think that's oil? Man, that oil, that's blood"
I wonder what he was thinking when he hit storm, or was he just lost in the flood?

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