The fog comes in and out with the tides like my pocket watch 
It doesn't keep the time spitting smoke combustion from 
Foreign cars choking my family history with the bloody wars 
Troubador, what's the score? standing in line with the 
Tenderloin whores troubador, take a fucking tour 'cause my 
Eyes are welling up from the last g-chord

Break-time satisfies with tar and nicotine and the church bells
Afternoon licks ring of blasphemy true to filth and form bus 
And trolley off the track and line lunch time whistles stop the 
Workers but not the troubador's crime the pub patrons spend 
Their wages in mumbled bouts the grub merchants chewed the fat then chewed 
You out pedestrian, night journeyment 
Pass your separate ways when you're eating from the piss 
Trough they're all pissing in your plate troubador, less is more 
Is it in your heart to give up the floor troubafor, pissed and 
Poor tell me something I haven't heard before
