Can't wait to find out who played on the studio version.

Re: Lazaretto
Lazaretto
My veins are blue and connected
And every single bone in my brain is electric
But I dig ditches like the best of 'em
Yo trabajo duro, como madera y yeso
Como madera y yeso
Como madera y yeso
And even god herself has fewer plans than me
But she never helps me out with my scams for free though
She grabs a stick and then she pokes it at me
When I say nothing, I say everything
Yeah when I say nothing, I say everything
They threw me down in the Lazaretto
Bored rotten, bored rotten
Making models of people I used to know
Out of coffee and cotton
And all my illegitimate kids'll be gotten
Thrown down to the wolves made feral for nothing
Quarantined on the Isle of Man
And I'm trying to escape any way that I can
Oh, any way that I can
Oh!
I don't have no time left! Time is lost! No time at all!
Throw it in a garbage can!
And I shake god's hand
I jump up and let her know when I can, this is how I'm gonna do it!
They wanna blow down the prison they're lighting fires with the cash of the masses
And like the dough I don't fall down I'm so Detroit I make it rise from the ashes

"lighting fires with the cash of the masses"?
Thanks for that, Jett, sounds like you pretty much nailed it. And thank you to circecoen for the Spanish bit.

Re: Lazaretto
Is the Spanish person a dude or a dudette? And thank you, Shane.

Re: Lazaretto
Has anyone else caught the voice at 2:57 behind the fiddle duet? Can't make out what it's saying, but it doesn't sound like Jack's voice.

Re: Lazaretto
Between the two threads about this song and people not looking at posts before theirs, there's a lotta deja vu going on around this place lately

Me too!! But I was wondering... You know what would be really ******* up? If all Lazaretto singles are limited editions-onlyJettkoral wrote:Hey, I just want to order the damn single..hahaKali Durga wrote:Between the two threads about this song and people not looking at posts before theirs, there's a lotta deja vu going on around this place lately
A Woman is more powerful than a man and this I know, and I think that you know this too.

Re: Lazaretto
Won't happen. Jack just said the other day that he always does a limited edition run of everything and then a standard black version that is always available to purchase. That is the whole point behind TMR.luccamezz wrote:Me too!! But I was wondering... You know what would be really ******* up?

Re: Lazaretto
Now that the 7" cover leaked, it would be really cool to have that Pre-Order or Order today.
