Fulham Blues - The Call

We were waiting at the Fulham station

For the last train east

A one-way ticket

The foreigners searching for the living

They got your sidewalk citizens

Mookin' all around

The tunnels were dark

We drove underground

Things look different

Things feel strange

You’re out of luck

You could be in danger down here

You ain’t at home (don't stare)

You could be in danger down here

When we rose to the surface

We were all stunned

The shock of what’s real

Like the sound of a gun

You can’t miss it

All the carney lights flashing

On the midway stroll

The blind getting fleeced

By the lovers of gold

Oh, it gets lonely

Man, it gets cold

You’re out of luck

You could be in danger down here

You ain’t at home (don't stare)

You could be in danger down here

(there'll be no staring down here)

We were growing so reckless

We were hurtin' for fun

There’s no turning back

To where you’d begun

It’s behind us

I remember well walking for hours

Through the scenes of old

An old soldier singing out

Bearing his soul empty handed

We stood there freezin'

On the empty streets

There’d be no rescue tonight

It seems we’ve been stranded

I said stranded

You’re out of luck

Brother you’re in danger down here

You ain’t at home (don't stare)

(there'll be no staring down here)

You’re out of luck

You could be in trouble boy

You ain’t at home (no)

You could be in danger

Danger

But you will be taken care of
