Lyrics

Down in the glen there's a band of old men Drinking their cider till dawn Warming to fires made of ashcans and tires The outcasts on liberty hill In the gin palace now We're swaying together as one Ill defined features and hair stood on end The dandies, the fops and the goths Come on and get dressed baby, pull on your pants We're going to go out tonight Through the dirty dark streets, so cold and so bleak See the lights turn fog into gold In the gin palace now We're swaying together as one A community center for the hopeless The brains of the dispossessed Sometimes it turns reeling into your arms cling together Excited and laughing Strangers thrown together on a fast funhouse floor That turned you out of your bed In the gin palace now We're swaying together as one The right to stew in your own juice The freedom to freeze and die Inside so hot, so bright and so loud All the people are talking at once Flashing dark eyes and shiny red lips Beautiful glistening clothes In the gin palace now We're swaying together as one They cashed in the chips on our shoulders In the casino economy
