For the Turnstiles

[Verse 1]

All the sailors with their seasick mamas

Hear the sirens on the shore

Singing songs for pimps with tailors

Who charge ten dollars at the door

[Chorus]

You can really learn a lot that way

It can change you in the middle of the day

Though your confidence may be shattered

It doesn't matter

[Verse 2]

All the great explorers

Are now in granite laid

Under white sheets for the great unveiling

At the big parade

[Chorus]

You can really learn a lot that way

It can change you in the middle of the day

Though your confidence may be shattered

It doesn't matter

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

All the bush league batters

They come to die on the diamond

In the stands the home crowd scatters

For the turnstiles

[Instrumental]
