6. Places with No Season II: The Frost Tavern
[Verse 1: Kayra]
Kick up the dust, horses! Do you think we'll lose the daylight?
I'm not the only one fighting with these shadows after all
I wouldn't stay there a minute, our souls would burn
They asked just the other day: "Whose grave is this beneath the poplar tree?"
These voices from fifty places, which house do they come from?
I'm free of anger - wouldn't curse your shadows
Let it be noted; the cures are wasted in their hands
Pull up the knots from down in their wells when the day comes
Let me know before you go, give me a ring when you arrive
So a friend, a truck can pick you up from the port
I put some money in your pocket for the road, spend it as you wish
Throw hoops on Parliaments¹ at the fairground
Have a quick heart-to-heart on the back seat of The Gondola²
Sweat it off with some Space Billard Hall's under-the-counter lemonade
I'll wait for a summer at The Frost Tavern
Tell me all about it in Orhan Ayhan's³ voice when you return
[Scratches: Vinyl Obscura, from "Gang starr - Suckas Need Bodyguards"]
After the killing just like Casper, I'm ghost
[Verse 2: Kayra]
Make this tingle your head
All the coats left from my uncle are dangling on hangers
I am surprised too
Even if I say that I'm speechless at the situation,
I humbly think the expressions come to my rescue every night
The roads are closed, going there is out of the question
I'd return with the last boat if you'd gone there
But ask me what have I done;
I've mistaken one of them for you, whenever some passengers boarded at a station, I find this funny
Therefore in the dead of this winter,
If there's any, your murderer must be a Mediterranean town
Dinner parties, congratulatory telegraphs...
We've passed out right there with the sound of the carriage
Might as well the butler tell, to which of us these words belong?
They are my own words and I wouldn't trust them to save my life
As if you won't be on the eve of the last friday
Be the night immortal for me just for today
[Scratches: Vinyl Obscura, from "Gangstarr - Suckas Need Bodyguards"]
After the killing just like Casper i'm ghost
