Luyện nghe bài hát Desolation Row

They're selling postcards of the hanging, they're the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors, the is in town
Here the blind commissioner, they've got him in a trance
One hand is to the tight-rope walker, the other is in his pants
And the riot squad they're restless, they somewhere to go
As Lady and I look out tonight, Desolation Row

Cinderella, she seems so easy, "It one to know one," she smiles
And puts her in her back pockets Bette Davis style
And in Romeo, he's moaning. "You Belong to Me I Believe"
And someone says, "You're in the wrong place, my friend, better leave"
And the only sound that's left after the go
Is Cinderella sweeping up on Row

Now the moon is almost hidden, the stars are to hide
The telling lady has even taken all her things inside
All for Cain and Abel and the hunchback of Notre Dame

Everybody is making love or else rain
And the Good Samaritan, he's dressing, he's getting for the show
going to the carnival tonight on Desolation Row

Ophelia, she's 'neath the for her I feel so afraid
On her birthday she already is an old maid
To her, death is quite romantic she wears an vest
Her her religion, her sin is her lifelessness
And though her eyes are fixed upon great rainbow
She her time peeking into Desolation Row

Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood with his in a trunk
Passed this way an ago with his friend, a jealous monk
Now he looked so immaculately frightful as he bummed a
And he when off drainpipes and reciting the alphabet
You would not think to look at him, but he was famous ago
For playing the violin on Desolation Row

Dr. Filth, he keeps his world of a leather cup
But all his patients, they're trying to blow it up
Now his nurse, some local loser, she's in charge of the cyanide
And she also keeps the that read, "Have Mercy on His Soul"
all play on the penny whistles, you can hear them blow
If you lean your head out far enough from Row

Across the street they've nailed the curtains, they're getting ready for the
The Phantom of the Opera in a perfect image of a
They are spoon Casanova to get him to feel more assured
Then they'll kill him with self-confidence after poisoning him with
And the shouting to skinny girls, "Get outta here if you don't know"
Casanova is just being punished for to Desolation Row"

At midnight all the and the superhuman crew
out and round up everyone that knows more than they do
Then they bring them to the factory where the machine
Is strapped across their and then the kerosene
Is brought from the castles by insurance men who go
Check to see that is escaping to Desolation Row

be to Nero's Neptune, the Titanic sails at dawn
Everybody's shouting, "Which are you on?!"
And Ezra Pound and T.S. Eliot in the captain's tower
While calypso singers laugh at and fishermen hold flowers
the windows of the sea where lovely mermaids flow
And nobody has to think too much Desolation Row

Yes, I received letter yesterday, about the time the doorknob broke
When you asked me how I was doing, was some kind of joke
All these people you mention, yes, I know them, they're quite lame
I had to rearrange their faces and give them all another
Right now, I can't read too good, send me no more letters no
Not unless you them from Desolation Row
