Times Square Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull

In a tough part of the city 

looking from some fast talk 

Watch 'Don't walk' to 'Walk' 

Easy when you're dreaming 

Standing in a circle, 

Staring at the movies 

Laughing at the wrong time. 

alcohol can take me there. 

I'd take a shot a minute 

And be there by the hour. 

Take a walk around Times Square 

With a pistol in my suitcase 

And my eyes on the TV.

In a car taking a back seat 

Staring out the window 

Thinking about danger. 

Playing in a wrong world 

Fighting — but I'm not free. 

Talking on the telephone 

Talking about you and me. 

Jesus Christ could take me here 

I'd fall dawn on my knees, 

Have no questions to His answers. 

Take a walk around Times Square 

With a pistol in my suitcase 

And my eyes on the TV. 

Alcohol could take me there. 

I'd take a shot a minute 

And be there by the hour.

Take a walk around Times Square 

With a pistol in my suitcase 

And my eyes on the TV. 

And if I die gaining my senses 

Wake up in a hotel 

Staring at the ceiling.
