Patti Smith - Last Call lyrics

Your rating:

     by Patti Smith



In a mansion high the young man stood 

Ready to join his companions good 

Outside the scent of magnolia blossoms 

Down streets of gold the children were racing 



Just another wandering soul 

Adrift among the stars 

Just another human heart 

Led, led away 



He put his shoes on and he laid down 

Outside the clouds were swiftly gathering 

He drained his cup and his stirred the mixture 

And he closed his eyes as his conscience whispered 



Just another wandering soul 

Adrift among the stars 

Just another human heart 

Led, led away 



Misgivings unspoken he joined his companions 

His face covered over in a mansion high 

Outside the children gazed in wonder 

At the quickening sky then slowly disbanded 



Thirty-nine wandering souls 

Adrift among the stars 

Thirty-nine human hearts 

Led, led away 



His burning skin cooled by angels 

Swallowing sorrows excretion 

It's all excretion 

Felled by his hand of the mind of another man 

Who makes the decisions 

Lends no provisions for mere eternal rides 

Learning of course every alien force 



Even Christ yearns to be 

To possess the skin 

And bone the blood of man 

Who tends the flock who breaks the bread 

Who makes his own choices 

Won't listen to voices 

Accept no false teachers 

False preachers, good deeders 

With their hands out stretched 

To be filled with your money 

Your mind, your heart, your imagination 

Sympathy, empathy 

Acknowledge all man as fellow creation 

But don't follow him 

Don't be led away
