Emergency Exit Lyrics


Hey, hey, hey, heyFourteen miles away from a landfill grave
Never pawned my watch and chain
The landlord living inside my head
I paid my rent till the lights went deadAnd I saw my sign coming up the road
Dead ditch waitin' for to bury my load
On the avenues and the brink of day
A Roosevelt dime and a bucket of rain
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohNow hold your hand up to the plow
Work the dirt till the sun goes down
What's left of death is more than fear
Let dust be dust and the good Lord nearIt's a little too much to ask of faith
A little too late to wait for fate
So tell the angels what you've seen
Scarecrow's shadow on the Nazarene
Oh, oh, oh oh, oh, oh, oh, ohKindness will find you
When darkness is falling round your bend
Kindness will follow , children will wander
Till the end, hey, oh, ooh

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Spliff was a German New Wave ("Neue Deutsche Welle") band in the 1970s and 1980s. Formed in April 1979, Spliff was a split-off of the Nina Hagen Band after the four male musicians claimed that Nina had become too bossy.
Three members, Manfred Praeker (b), Bernhard Potschka (g) and Herwig Mitteregger (dr) had been playing together before in German political rock band Lokomotive Kreuzberg. Reinhold Heil (key) joined for the Nina Hagen Band. On their 3 german albums all of them took turns at the lead singer part.
