Send "Desolation Row" Ringtone to your Cell
My Chemical RomanceDesolation Row Lyrics:
They're selling postcards
Of the hanging
They're painting
The passports brown
Then the beauty parlor
Is filled with sailors
The circus is in town
And now here comes
The blind commissioner
They've got him in a trance
One hand is tied
To the tight-rope walker
The other is in his pants
And the riot squad
They're restless
They need somewhere to go
As Lady
And I look out tonight
From Desolation Row
Cinderella
She seems so easy
And it takes one to know one
She smiles
And puts her hands
In her back pockets
Bette Davis style
And in comes Romeo
Moaning
You Belong to Me I Believe
And someone says
you're in the wrong place
My friend
You better leave
And then the only sound that's left
After the ambulances go
Is Cinderella sweeping up
On Desolation Row
Now at midnight all the agents
And the superhuman crew
Go out and round up everyone
That knows more than they do
Then they bring them to the factory
Where the heart-attack machine
Is strapped across their shoulders
And then the kerosene
Is brought down from the castles
By insurance men who go
Check to see
That nobody is escaping
To Desolation Row
Right now I can't read too good
don't send me no more letters no
Not unless you mail them
From Desolation Row
