Lyrics The Sisters of Mercy

The Sisters of Mercy

Detonation Boulevard

Ain't coming

On detonation boulevard

Through the angel rain

Through the dust and the gasoline

Through the cruelty of strangers

To the neon dream

Long distance information

Just tell me where the manholes steam

A little girl waits on my station

With a new machine

On detonation boulevard

I got wrecked out here

In a El Dorado

I got wired, white-walled

For this hot-wired sedan

I caught somethin' weird in Ensenada

I've a brother of sorts in Torquemada

Long distance information

Disconnect me if you can

On detonation boulevard

Pink noise, white noise

And a violet whining sound

Oh it burns inside this car

No cops, no signs, no left, no right

No stops, no turning round

Well you can run but you can't ride

You won't get far

On detonation boulevard

Bang bang

On detonation boulevard

Through the angle rain

Through the rust and the gasoline

Through the cruelty of strangers

To the neon dream

Long distance information

I'll take the same

I got the fuel for the transformation

I'm a naked flame

On detonation boulevard

Bang bang
