 Out on the edge of the nervous street 
 
Aching aching 
 
So deaf to the call of the wild 
Deaf to the first born's whispering plea 
Expanding frame the city is in heat 
Burning at the edges of the lonely street

 But I want to hold your precious head

 I will not leave you nor pretend my friend 
Fm                          C 
  I wanna hold you till the end 
 
 
Hey mama didn't know we'd end up here 
The snapshot is all tiles and red walls 
Down at the squatter's camps they cannot compete 
The shepherd has been bound up by his hands and his feet
