A tenement, a dirty street
Walked and worn by shoeless feet
Inside it's long and so complete
Watched by a shiverin' sun
Old eyes in a small child's face
Watchin' as the shadows race
Through walls and cracks and leave no trace
And daylight's brightness shuns
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ah-ah-ah
The race is almost run
Nose pressed hard on frosted glass
Gazin' at the swollen mass
On concrete fields where grows no grass
Stumbles blindly on
Iron trees smother the air
With witherin' they stand and stare
Through eyes that neither know nor care
Where the grass is gone
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ah-ah-ah
The race is almost run
Walked and worn by shoeless feet
Inside it's long and so complete
Watched by a shiverin' sun
Old eyes in a small child's face
Watchin' as the shadows race
Through walls and cracks and leave no trace
And daylight's brightness shuns
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ah-ah-ah
The race is almost run
Nose pressed hard on frosted glass
Gazin' at the swollen mass
On concrete fields where grows no grass
Stumbles blindly on
Iron trees smother the air
With witherin' they stand and stare
Through eyes that neither know nor care
Where the grass is gone
The days of Pearly Spencer
Ah-ah-ah
The race is almost run
