Bad Moon Over Brooklyn

lyrics

BAD MOON OVER BROOKLYN

There’s a bad moon over Brooklyn tonight,
And I can’t find my way between wrong and right.
Down in Grave’s End Harbor, all right,
It’s a bad moon over Brooklyn, rising clear and white
Down on the horizon and rolling outa sight…
It’s a bad moon over Brooklyn tonight.

Factories abandoned in the wind,
Whistling a eulogy to never rise again.
Brighton Beach is dark unto the sea,
There’s a bad moon over you and me, above the BQE.
Lights all flickered out along the curve
From Coney Island Avenue on up to Williamsburg.
Cars across the bridges taking exits outa sight…
It’s a bad moon over Brooklyn tonight,
It’s a bad moon.

Had a drink with Whitman down the block
And I watched the blood of martyrs pour from solid rock.
Calling Jackie Robinson tonight,
Well you left me down on Flatbush, drunk, and raving for the light.
Along abandoned roller coasters, ghosts are gonna ride
Throw their arms into the air and float into the night…
It’s a bad moon over Brooklyn tonight,
It’s a bad moon over Brooklyn tonight.
It’s a bad moon…
