(No Room On) Grayson Street

from Say Hello EP (fdm138) by Chris Anderson

lyrics

there she goes down
to meet her god
alone, she takes him on
it's all done

whatcha gonna do alone?

chains on her arms
for she
crimson and gold

i close my eyes
and i whistle sweetly
broken down, ramshackled
and i whistle sweetly

and i'd like to say
how did we come to this dam?

bang, bang, bang, bang
chitty chitty

alone -
whatcha gonna do alone?

odds are she's going down

she burned me
and whistled sweetly
knocked out, left for dead
and whistled sweetly

and i'd like to stay
why must she stay alone?

and you whistle sweetly

alone -
whatcha gonna do alone?

black coffee, getting up
like new morning
can you whistle sweetly?

and i rub my eyes
and say "take me down"
well, it seemed so easy

could you just whistle sweetly"

alone -
whatcha gonna do alone?

-October 1994
