One of the best songs off of this record. I think it's one of their best songs over all. I noticed there were quite a few live versions on here, but i think we all needed the studio version. Now our lives are complete. Don't you all thank me at once... purely for educational purposes of course...

I'm a thousand miles below
I'm in a hole waiting for you,

with filthy streets and trucks, outside
I dress, then I undress, and look, outside
I'm in a hole and waiting,
here for you...

Between the lights downtown
In the back of a cab,

you are looking for kicks, to make your kicks
and just like the trick, that goes like this
and just like the prick,
that you are...

I'm a thousand miles below
pulling ribbons from my hair,

low rates and color T.V.
money on the bed, left there for me
and one of these days I'll kill you,
while you sleep...

Between the lights downtown
in the back of a taxi,

you are getting misty-eyed,
beneath the adult world sign
just like little children,
in one screaming line
I'm in a hole and waiting,
here for you...

I'm a thousand miles below
why do you leave me here?

I was strong enough to admit that I was weak
you take and give alot, but
you don't give to me
one of these days I'll kill you,
while you sleep

  • Yes, in my Gun Club top five for sure

  • One of the best examples of JLP's profound ability to tell a story and take us on a journey through the backstreets of his imagination, to see life through his eyes, a whisky haze and the dirty curtains of a cheap hotel. How did he do it ? A great american poet.

  • thank's you dear TheCalebaaron for this studio version I did'nt know !

    I love quite all songs of JLP and stay open for everything I did'nt hear yet with a great hapiness !!! ;-)

  • One of JLP's best lyrics. One of JLP's best vocals. What's not to like?

  • Thanks - I agree... my favourite of theirs... thanks for uploading... I've been looking for it for ages- Yes... our lives are complete !

  • Thank you.

  • Nice video. The Great Song! Thank for uploading:)
