When Sal`s Burned Down lyrics
Words and music by Dar Williams
Are we the fools for being suprised
that a silence could end with no sound Like the silent movie era like with
snow like when Sal's burned down Well yeah there was noise but nothing to
mark the passing on Of that great unspoken chance we had found Where the
night's end came well-trod and familiar Like the Charlie Chapin walk that
fades to black And there wasn't anyone trying to sell their souls They
were only trying to buy them back They were only trying to buy them back
Well yeah there was a Sal he walked with bulging pockets round
town Either he was up to no good or he just got excited watching things burn
down Well I guess he got the idea if you hold a chunk of gold in your hand
now For once in your life you can throw some weight around And Sal you
slimeball sell-out how can we blame you We all want something to put our
fingers on And you never know the true throne that you've lost Till the
vinyl barstools are gone Till the vinyl barstools are gone
If you
toss around some words you might say that Sal was carrying a torch for the
mob But the mob's gone too yeah the only sign of them left Is on every
screen at the multiplex and we go there no prob hey Cause there ain't no
cowboys in this Connecticut town No not anymore, no, not since Sal's burned
down Once you'd dip your tin cup down in the muse's watering hole Or
pioneer a new patch of common ground Then you'd lie on your time-traveled
bedroll Quite amazed at the expansive terrain* And if anyone said that
you'd never have fame and fortune just that bar You know you'd ride that
way again I bet you'd ride that way again
