Flesh Lyrics
The bursting balloon cocktails are soon Young glands young flesh invade the room A sardonic mood ughh... Watch the rich fatty eating raw fish with avid curiosity Oh piggy squeals and donkey bray -- at a sober party Doggy barks and horsey neighs -- try to shock the party Impaled on pleasure impaled on a sp

It was the morning of October 6th, 1960
I was wearing my brown suit
Preparing to leave the house of D.
Shook some hands then adios Brooklyn amigos
Maybe some of them had hopes of seeing me
again
Some even said that my judge-Judge Gerald
Culkin-
Wouldn't play it by the book
Maybe let us off the hook
But, WOH-OO-WOH, I knew better.
SAL & SALVADOR
Afraid to leave the projects
To cross into another neighborhood
SAL
The blancos and the nigger gangs
Well, they'd kill you if they could.
AUREA & WOMEN
Angel of Mercy, people are suffering
All over the world

De Uitnodiging Voor Het Jubikelbal Lyrics
Jubikels zijn pas avonds fit, Jubikels zijn dan overal: de Jubikelmaan schijnt zilverwit - Jubikels houden hun Jubikelbal. Jubikels kom, wees kwiek, wees fit, Jubikels, op naar het Jubikelbal. Jubikels zijn pas avonds fit, Jubikels zijn dan overal: de Jubikelmaan schijnt zilverwit - Jubikels houden
hildren are taught on their kneesJubikels zijn pas avonds fit, Jubikels zijn dan overal: de Jubikelmaan schijnt zilverwit - Jubikels houden hun Jubikelbal. Jubikels kom, wees kwiek, wees fit, Jubikels, op naar het Jubikelbal. Jubikels zijn pas avonds fit, Jubikels zijn dan overal: de Jubikelmaan schijnt zilverwit - Jubikels houden

Angel of Mercy, people are suffering
All over the island tonight,
Mothers weep
SAL & AUREA
Sisters grieve.

Well, I entered the courtroom, state of New
York
County of New York, just some spic
They scrubbed off the sidewalk
Guilty by my dress
Guilty in the press
Let The Capeman burn for the murder
Well the "Spanish boys" had their day in
court
And now it was time for some fuckin' law and
order
The electric chair
For the greasy pair
Said the judge to the court reporter
SAL & SALVADOR
Afraid to leave the projects<
Lasting Child [7:35] Lyrics

SALVADOR
The newspapers and the T.V. crews
Well, they'd kill you if they could
AUREA & WOMEN
Angel of Mercy, people are suffering
All over the world
A Spanish boy could be killed every night of
the week
SAL
But just let some white boy die
And the world goes crazy for blood-Latin
blood.
I don't lie when I speak.
SAL & SALVADOR
Well they shackled my hands
SAL
A heavy belt around my waist to restrain me
SAL & SALVADOR
And they shackled my legs
SAL
Hernandez, the "Umbrella Man," chained
beside me<

I left their sheltered care and walked a rogue in total freedom to see the world with my own eyes live by my sword I joined the fray to find what I believed was instant wisdom but what I got was more than I ever wished for Hate to bring you down, to push your face into the ground but it never is that s
