Of the darkness in men's minds

What can you say

That wasn't marked by history

Or the T.V. news today

He gets away with murder

The blizzards come and go

The stab and glare and buckshot

Of the heavy heavy snow

It comes and goes

It comes and goes



His grandpa loved an empire

His sister loved a thief

And lindsey loved the ways of darkness

Beyond belief

Girls in chilly blouses

The blizzards come and go

The stab and glare and buckshot

Of the heavy heavy snow

It comes and goes

It comes and goes



The cops don't seem to care

For derelicts or ladies of the night

They're weeds for yanking out of sight

If you're smart or rich or lucky

Maybe you'll beat the laws of man

But the inner laws of spirit

And the outer laws of nature

No man can

No--no man can



There lives a wolf in Lindsey

That raids and runs

Through the hills of Hollywood

And the downtown slums

He gets away with murder

The blizzards come and go

The stab and glare and buckshot

Of the heavy heavy snow

It comes and goes

It comes and goes
