The Wretched Excess - The Edge of the Western World Lyrics

Home is where my old debts live
Whitey don't know the word "forgive"
Over there where my regrets sit
But here they greet you with a kiss

Through the Chrysanthemum Door
Find my Ruby on the third floor

See her after the boys all stagger home
For that sweetness you're craving for

Hanging with A-Yi (阿姨) and all of her friends
Always yours, dear
Hung up on the stairs when the morning comes
Blacked out on beer

I'm a liar bored with his yarn
A gambler tired of easy fun
This time, let this dog have his day
Here... at the edge of the western world

Meet me under the neon signs
With glowing eyes, boy toys
Fish where the choi (菜) gather like koi
Where they cheer the last cowboy

Sing-song girls under each arm
See sai lou (細佬) at the break of dawn

Here at the Kowloon they won't care
Long as I'm packing hardware

Under the marquee there is no disguise
You hide your pain
And in the night time that madman's blue eyes
Comes out again

I'm a liar bored with his yarn
A gambler tired of easy fun
This time, let this dog have his day
Here... at the edge of the western world

Under the marquee there is no disguise
You hide your pain
And in the night time that madman's blue eyes
Comes out again

Little girls, with them blonde curls
Dance around, like halogen pearls
Please, let this dog have his day
Here... at the edge of the western world
