Track Insight / Lyrics
Eggs crack sharp on seasoned steel
Knight wipes visor, drinks his meal
Cello case rests by the fryer's glow
Basement waltz in 3/4 time, slow
Tarnished steel meets harpsichord tune
Flute dances beneath the moon
Chicago wind rattles window glass
Knight and cook watch moments pass
Regulars laugh at counter stools
Knight checks dents in golden rules
Violin sighs from velvet case
Grease and glory, midnight grace
Tarnished steel meets harpsichord tune
Flute dances beneath the moon
Chicago wind rattles window glass
Knight and cook watch moments pass
Broad sword hums a baroque phrase
Wooden flute in smoky haze
Order up, two over easy
Knight smiles thin, not pale or queasy
Tarnished steel meets harpsichord tune
Flute dances beneath the moon
Chicago wind rattles window glass
Knight and cook watch moments pass
Armor clinks on vinyl booth
Knight removes a steel-capped tooth
Wait, that's wrong, a gauntlet's glove
Resting soft on diner love
No dragons here, just hash browns crisp
No damsels, just a coffee sip
The jazz club thumps three floors above
Two old warriors share a glove
Dawn paints gray on alley brick
Knight sheathes sword with quiet click
Cook flips sign to OPEN bright
Another night, another fight
Tarnished steel meets harpsichord tune
Flute dances beneath the moon
Chicago wind rattles window glass
Knight and cook watch moments pass
Tarnished steel meets harpsichord tune
Flute dances beneath the moon
Chicago wind rattles window glass
Knight and cook watch moments pass
Steam fades slow on griddle plate
Sword rests quiet, coffee late
