Tenement Song Songtext
von Pixies

The drumsticks were his treasure trove
Found in the ashes of The Coconut Grove

Hey, man, can you give me something?
Hey, man, did you give me something?
Hey, man, nothing comes from nothing
Hey, man, something came from somewhere

Hey, man, it′s a tenement song
It's there on the tip of your tongue
Let′s play on a tenement song
On and on and on

Tenement song
It's a tenement song


Tall bottle and one more smoke
Tenement song
She lived through the fire but the piano got broke
It's a tenement song

Hey, man, can you give me something?
Hey, man, did you give me something?

Hey, man, it′s a tenement song
It′s there on the tip of your tongue
Let's play on a tenement song
On and on and on

Hey, man, it′s a tenement song,
It's there on the tip of your tongue,
Let′s play on a tenement song
On and on and on
On and on and on
