"Prominent Men"
Through all of the highways, the bi-ways and channels
through all of the sides, streets and alleys of sin
Through all that's been heard nothing seeks fires alone
as the prominent segments of prominent men
Prominent men tell prominent stores
prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men gives the acid their fortunes
prominent men will tear out your eyes
The streets that are alive have cats on their belly
aligned with their tracks on a thousand good byes
A poor woman screams with the heat of disaster
as prominent men tries to strengthen
Oh, the prominent girls of the prominent people
make prominent dresses and prominent hair
Oh, their prominent wealth and their eyes blazed with shadow
the prominent horrors with the ghost millionaire
The shiny stained window now cracked at sunset
they shiny red dawn of the heart soon must fall
This simply occurred at the seat of the cauldron
those prominent men hadn't been there at all
Prominent men tell prominent stores
prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men gives the acid their fortunes
prominent men will tear out your eyes
Oh, the prominent child of these prominent people
seeks prominent schools with the finery of age
With a prominent pink of a tasteless red orchid
the prominent men casts a prominent heir
The child of the agent walks barefoot upon grass
he screams with a power that terrors green eyes
His knife harshly blisters, there's no-way and always
but those prominent men in no way in sight
Prominent men tell prominent stores
prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men gives the acid their fortunes
prominent men will tear out your eyes

Prominent Men off of Peel Slowly and See are actually as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Through all of the highways and byways I've travelled,
Through all of the sidestreets and alleys of sin
Through all that's been heard nothing sinks quite as low
As the prominent statements of prominent men
Prominent men tell prominent stories
Prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men kiss the ass of Dame Fortune
Prominent men will tear out your eyes
The streets that have life with the cat's underbelly
Aligned with their tracks of a thousand good-byes
A poor woman screams with the heat of disaster
As the prominent men sit and strengthen their ties
Oh the prominent girls of the prominent people
Make prominent dresses and prominent hair
Oh their prominent wealth and their eyes blazed with shadow
The prominent horrors with the ghost millionaires
The shiny stained windows now crackle at sunset
They shiny red dawn of the heart soon must fall
This (simply occurred at the seat?) of the cauldron
Those prominent men hadn't been there at all
Prominent men tell prominent stories
Prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men kiss the ass of Dame Fortune
Prominent men will tear out your eyes
Oh the prominent child of these prominent people
Seeks prominent schools with the finery of age
With a prominent pink of a tasteless red orchid
The prominent men cast a prominent heir
The child of the agent walks barefoot upon grass
He screams with a power of terror's green eye
His knife harshly glistening
Stabs noways and always
But those prominent men in nowhere in sight
Prominent men tell prominent stories
Prominent men tell prominent lies
Prominent men kiss the ass of Dame Fortune
Prominent men will tear out your eyes
---------------------------------------------------------------------
At least that's what I make of it
...some of it is in the Peel Slowly and See documentation.
bubye,
