Cleaning Man
I was the cleaning man
I was the cleaning man
Listened to the radio play 'Cowgirl in the Sand'
When I was the cleaning man
I was the cleaning man
After everyone had come
To talk and drink and dance
I could see the evening scene reflecting in the cans
Now echoes of the empty room return with loneliness
And in the darkness of the night
I take the devil's hand
When I was the cleaning man
I was death's hand
I was heroin
To somebody I shouldn't have been
I was heroin
I was death's hand
I was the thief who stole all those women and men
I stood at the funerals of relatives and friends
And like a Midas eye wishing my greed and curse would end
When I was the cleaning man
When I was the cleaning man
When I was the cleaning man
Homem de limpeza
Eu era o homem da limpeza
Eu era o homem da limpeza
Ouvido o jogo de rádio 'Cowgirl in the Sand "
Quando eu era o homem de limpeza
Eu era o homem da limpeza
Depois que todos tinham vindo
Para conversar e beber e dançar
Eu podia ver a cena da noite refletindo nas latas
Agora ecoa do retorno quarto vazio com a solidão
E na escuridão da noite
Eu pegar a mão do diabo
Quando eu era o homem de limpeza
Eu era a mão de morte
Eu era heroína
Para alguém que eu não deveria ter sido
Eu era heroína
Eu era a mão de morte
Eu era o ladrão que roubou todas as mulheres e homens
Eu estava nos funerais de parentes e amigos
E como um olho Midas desejando minha ganância e maldição terminaria
Quando eu era o homem de limpeza
Quando eu era o homem de limpeza
Quando eu era o homem de limpeza
