Lyrics
The Hunchback of San Francisco
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Morning has broken the silence of night
Now you'll have to use kindness to fight
It's just like asbestos, it sticks to your skin
It burns within
Luck is a hunchback, travelling light
With rags and transistors to hold up the sky
Drink to the hearts that San Francisco stole
But drink slow
'Cause I'm a lonely Man
And you're a lonely Girl
And it's a lonely world
If you make Vegas, leave on the lights
I want to see your expression change
Hatred will take us to unknown heights
Drink slow
'Cause I'm a lonely Man
And you're a lonely Girl
And it's a lonely world
