It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me,
Won't see another one
And then he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you
Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So happy Christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true
They've got cars
Big as bars
They've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on the corner
Then danced through the night
The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing
Out for Christmas day
You're a bum
You're a punk
You're an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead
On a drip in that bed
You scumbag
You maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God
It's our last
The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing
Out for Christmas day
I could have been someone
Well, so could anyone
You took my dreams
From me when I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you
The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing
Out for Christmas day
Desafogados brilhos desta existência, quis olhar em frente, e vi somente escuro. Escuro, escória, lixo, lama e penetrante breu. Quis seguir em frente e não mo permitiram. Quis marcar presença, caí, e fui banido. Quis viver, e fui marcado a fogo com o rótulo do nada. Malditas palavras que me acendem esta vivência, pudera eu ser livre, e não viver por trás deste muro. Ser vento, ou poeira, e correr solto pelo esplendor deste céu. Malditas palavras que de mim emergiram, ainda mal as proferia, e já as via, abafadas em seu ruído, como se fossem pássaros, abatidos em revoada. Como eu mesmo, abatido assim, em tenra idade. Mas sosseguem, pois sou coisa irritante que insiste em não morrer. Malogrado pela estupidez do desprezo, sou, ainda assim, Homem! Homem! Homem... Estou vivo, e não desabo. Desafogado percurso que ainda mal começa, não verás teu fim nesta desdita amordaçada. Quis dizer o que quis, e não me faltou a vontade. Mais fáci...
