Zero And Blind Terry Lyrics by Bruce Springsteen

Zero And Blind Terry Lyrics

    The skulls met the pythons
    Down at the first street station
    Alliance has been made in alleyways
    All across the nation
    These boys live off the milk of a silver jet
    And the love of sweet young women
    The pythons are down from old englishtown
    And they 're looking to do some living

    Well the leader of the pythons
    Is a kid they just call zero
    Now terry's pop says these kids
    Are some kind of monsters
    But terry says "no, pop
    They're just plain heroes"

    Zero and terry had found a love
    That burned like wild fire
    Now terry's dad understood
    That this zero was no good
    A tramp, a thief and a liar

    Well from out of the darkness
    That breaks the dawn
    Zero rode like twilight
    He said "tonight's the night
    Blind terry come on
    Terry come on
    Tonight is the night
    Pack your bags baby"

    And together they ran like reindeers
    Through the streets
    Well like tomorrow the earth
    Is gonna catch on fire

    Now terry's dad hired some troopers
    To kill zero and bring terry back home
    They caught up in the night, like firelightthem starlight troopers....
    Zero marches through terry's field
    They met the pythons down on route nine
    But they refused to yield
    Now the pythons fought with blazed guns
    And the troopers with swords of light
    And zero and terry they ran away
    And the gang fought all through the night

    Now some folks say
    Zero and terry got away
    Other said they were caught and brought back
    Ah, still young pilgrims to this day
    Go to that spot way down by the railroad tracks
    Where the troopers met the pythons
    Old timers cry on a hot august night
    If you look hard enough, if you try
    You'll see zero and terry and all the pythons
    Just hiking them streets up in the sky.
