lirik lagu no sure way – loudon wainwright iii
so i started out on high street had to travel into town
like some orpheus descending through a turnstile
underground
from brooklyn heights into manhattan which was where i
had to be
now you have to take the a train there’s no more
service on the c
and when you are underwater sometimes the mind plays
tricks
and there beneath the east river it felt like the river
styx
the first stop was broadway n-ssau a few more
p-ssengers got in
we all sat no one was standing there somewhere we’d
never been
they say heaven’s high above us h-ll’s not far below
in that subway tunnel there was no sure way to know
chambers street a closed ghost station p-ssing through
we seemed to glide
like prisoners inside compartments on some house of
horrors ride
the walls were tiled i hadn’t noticed they seemed so
antiseptically clean
but we knew what we were under the lights were on that
seemed obscene
and there i saw the three initials w, t, and then the c
i’d survived somehow was living but somewhere i
shouldn’t be
at the next stop the doors opened and i emerged up
above ground
i was in another country elysian fields no, chinatown
they say heaven’s high above us h-ll’s not far below
standing on c-n-l street there was no sure way to know
they say heaven’s high above us h-ll’s not far below
standing on c-n-l street there was no sure way to go
