the wind is always blowing in this place when i look at you you go away the clouds are spineless they're leaving this town their flight is their life and i'm always at home when it rains listening to the wind in your veins it's not a matter of circumstance but it's in the manner which you speak my name look completely taken in still as though you are against it yourself, but remain listening to the wind in your veins my blood wants love as my heart does lay my head on a spike and i sleep through the night listening to the wind in your veins

you may have thought that i looked lost standing in the middle of your river but i was just wading to cross think i'll go back to my city and dry off
3.
the first time i smelled ham don't ask me how i feel i do not understand if you ask me how i feel an answer i won't have the first time i smelled ham i'll sing to cheer you and make you thoughtful too it's good you can easy see but it's evil that you can't the first time i smelled ham

someday they're going take them both down and they'll bury them side by side to some it will be grief, to the law a relief but it's death for bonnie and clyde yes it's death for bonnie and clyde they say they are cold-blooded killers they say they are ruthless and mean but i say with pride that i once knew clyde when he was honest, upright and clean but the law kept taking him down kept locking him up in a cell 'ti he said to me "i'll never be free might as well me a few of them in hell" if they try and act just like citizens and rent themselves a nice little flat by the third night they're invited to fight by a subgun's rat-a-tat-tat the road grows dimmer and dimmer sometimes you can hardly see it's a fight, man to man and do all you can for they know they'll never be free just like we know we'll never be free someday they're going to take them both down and they'll bury them side by side to some it will be grief, to the law a relief but it's death for bonnie and clyde yes it's death for bonnie and clyde and it will death for us if we stay alive
5.
there is confusion there is amusement when we get together if it's cahoots or if it's communion night is ours to make it and do best what two people do the time it takes is all it takes away lover don't be lazy is it true the drumstick won, the flea is dead and we go on it's your body that i want and i want it without any clothes on if you get lonely you can call me i will come over and then i'll get going is it true the drumstick won, the flea's with god and we go on it's your body that i want and i want it without any clothes on there are places certain places underneath the sun where life and love come to end but this place isn't one of them
