When Dawn Arrives lyrics
Song information
Artist: Madness Album: Seven
Lyrics
He hums tonight through his streets My unlatched window the tune repeats The kerb-crawling car winds down to a stop A few seconds mumble then whisks him off
Sick and tired of abuse Controlled signs of hysteria But like when dawn arrives He remembers his leisure
He runs tonight through his block A crack in the curtain is unlocked No meeting with a mother or greeting a friend A sharp-looking boot-jack with some time to spend
Sick and tired of abuse Controlled signs of hysteria But like when dawn arrives He remembers his leisure
He cries tonight Through his manner I can see his conscience Get the better From a door-way stepped in Shadowed leather Exchanging handshakes for money And pleasure
He crawls tonight through his scum From my dirty window his body's numb Beneath the street-lamp tilts shoulders bent Then meets his pick-up who pays his rent
Sick and tired of abuse Controlled signs of hysteria But like when dawn arrives He remembers his leisure His pleasure
