Luyện nghe bài hát Lost In The Flood

The ragamuffin is returnin' home like a hungry runaway
He walks through all alone--"He must be from the fort," he hears the high school girls say
His countryside's with wolfman fairies dressed in drag for homicide
The hit-and-run plead sanctuary, 'neath a holy stone hide
They're breakin' beams and crosses with a spastic's reelin'
Nuns run bald through Vatican halls, pregnant, 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, ain't mud
Have you thrown your senses to the war, or did you them in the flood?"

That pure American brother, and empty-faced
Races in Jersey in a Chevy stock super eight
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 kids him Jimmy the Saint
Well, blaze-and-noise boy, he's gunnin' that bitch loaded to blastin' point
He rides 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 across the horizon, a real highwayman's
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 that storm, or was he just in the flood?

Eighth Avenue sailors in satin whisper in the air
Some storefront incarnation of Maria, she's on me the stare
And Bronx's apostle 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 from uptown, shootin' up the street
And that cat the Bronx starts lettin' loose, but he gets blown right off his feet
And kid comes blastin' 'round the corner, but a cop puts him right away
He on the street holding his leg, screaming something in Spanish, still breathing when I walked away
And somebody said, "Hey man, did you see that? His 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 cats are sure messed up
I what they were gettin' into, or were they just lost in the flood?
