Ed Ames (John Peel Session #2) - Pavement (人行道乐队)

There's no fire

A charming face on his sister

A darling face on his sister

And a dour face on his sister

A bratty face on his sister

I wish I could

But I can't handle her at all

Give me your lens-cap please

There's a chief investigator

Standing in the middle of the street

Where his aunt was slashed last night

Once they running from market to the hydrant

And he can't do his job properly

Cause she gave him the

Favorite presents every holiday

And he dearly misses her

So they call

So they call

Run run me down

So they called a private investigator

With a long nose and a

Large pipe with no problem

Picks up the assailant leaning on

A large leg in a valley sixty miles away

You know what he said

He did the crime

But I'm doing the time chief investigator

This is a song about lonely Edward Franklin Aims

Out of a job

Steadies himself as a tinker

Has his two children shoveling

Small plates under the chin

Amateurs scraps of change and tenement men

And one case separated him

From the decent and stress filled life

They're keeping it somewhere in a

Small museum outside of Copenhagen

He looks off into the ocean

Respect to the Vikings

And the Caucasian warriors

I lost it's lost
