City Of Motors Lyrics - Artist : Soul Coughing
Three times dark, first in the mind
Second on Java Street, the dead car there The hood blown out with a BB gun Manuela said she saw the brakes fail Manuela said she saw the brakes fail An empty body, but it still bled Oil from the axle, and it left a trail Ran down Java Street, and formed a pool Manuela saw the moon in there Manuela saw the moon in there And I hear it rumbling, I hear transmission grind I bear witness. I have the clutch now Three times darker on the rooftops Man jumps between and grabs the rail Man tries the door but the door is locked Man gouge the hinge and goes down the stairs Man gouge the hinge and goes down the stairs Dull bright morning and the tools are gone Detectives with flashlights in the elevator shaft Manuela tells detectives she saw him there Stuck in the hinge is a sliver of a fingernail Stuck in the hinge is a sliver of a fingernail And I hear it rumbling, I hear transmission grind I bear witness. I have the clutch now Three times dark on the turnpike From the Motor City to the City of Dis They traced his travel by his credit card No sleep, smokes, and he's nauseous No sleep, smokes, and he's nauseous Flips an ash like a wild, loose comma Ash hits the oil around the pump Travels to the pump and the pump explodes Witness says he saw the car jump Witness says he saw the car jump And I hear it rumbling, I hear transmission grind I bear witness. I have the clutch now |
