Artist(s)Joni Mitchell
Album(s)Miles Of Aisles

Cold Blue Steel out of money
One eye for the beat police
Sweet Fire calling
";You can't deny me
Now you know what you need";
Underneath the jungle gym
Hollow-grey-fire-escape-thief
Looking for Sweet Fire
Shadow of Lady Release
";Come with me
I know the way"; she says
";It's down, down, down the dark ladder
Do you want to contact somebody first
Leave someone a letter
You can come now
Or you can come later";
A wristwatch, a ring, a downstairs screamer
Edgy-black cracks of the sky
";Pin-cushion-prick-
Fix this poor bad dreamer!";
";Money"; cold shadows reply
Pawnshops crisscrossed and padlocked
Corridors spit on prayers and pleas
Sparks fly up from Sweet Fire
Black soot of Lady Release
";Come with me
I know the way"; she says
";It's down, down, down the dark ladder
Do you want to contact somebody first
Does it really matter
If you come now
Or if you come on later?";
Red water in the bathroom sink
Fever and the scum brown bowl
Blue Steel still begging
But it's indistinct
Someone's Hi-Fi drumming Jelly Roll
Concrete concentration camp
Bashing in veins for peace
Cold Blue Steel and Sweet Fire
Fall into Lady Release
";Come with me I know the way"; she says
";It's down, down, down the dark ladder
Do you want to contact somebody first
I mean what does it really matter
You're going to come now
Or you're going to come later";
