lirik lagu dave steel and the roadside prophets - queen of surry hills

the night falls like a promise and the wind begins to call… and all across the winding streets the wildcats greet the leaves that fall… and brush up to the houses like a breath and like a curse… another scarecrow dream reverse… she slips the sunset streets like the ghost of her own shadow… her ashtray lines her valentines they stand so close they look so frail so shallow… her eyes so dark and shuttered her skin as cold as ice… she is the mistress of her paradise…

and they watch her walk, listen to all her talk
they give her tonics for her ills
and the streamlined safety nets so thin so narrow
are spread tonight for the queen of surry hills

her time comes round unknown and unsuspected… like the king snake it crawls through the door and up across the bar… all the drug~free s~x~free ones they sit there sucking their own thumbs… she gives them what they want with a halfway smile…

and d~mn all limits, all parades
and d~mn the passing of the day
and d~mn this cleverness that they call sk!ll
the humble shadows are all that remember
the ghosts that guard the queen of surry hills

now we all go home and sit, try to remember… we all do the things we have been shown… some of us watch the sky, some let the night pass by… we all shed a bitter tear once in a while… the spirit of adventure lies bleeding in some empty nightclub… the crows that fill the air with screams they dark the sun… she comes home, she locks the door… she does not ask for one thing more… there’s just this sense of falling, falling…

and she takes the test, she stands there with all the rest
the onward rolling days they sap the will
and the magic slips away into tomorrow
and the sun goes down on the queen of surry hills
