Lyrics

The angel rides with hunchbacked children Poison oozing from his engine Wielding love as a lethal weapon On his way to have a cap in heaven Baseball cards clogged in his spokes His boots and all he's patiently sold The roadside attendant nervously jokes As the angel starts to stroke his precious finger Down an interstate chode with nomadic hordes In Volkswagen vans with whores Running boards dragging great anchors Following dead end signs into the sewers And the angel rides behind his own metal whore Madison Avenue's claim to fame In a train of bright with eyes like rain She rubs against the weather-beaten frame And asks the angel for his name She rubs against the weather-beaten frame And asks the angel for his name The angel rides with hunchbacked children Poison oozing from his engine Off in the distance the marble domes Rough flats cross the flatlands With a need to fill up in the bars unknown The woman strokes his polished chrome And lies beside the angel's bones
