we were walking down the street
hand in hand
having fun
with the people we'd meet
she said "look at all the freaks
flashing eyes throwing sparks..."
i said they'd been there for years
countin' money smoking numbers
familiar faces that i'd seen
in my dreams
long ago
i knew the scene
sleepless nights
midnight alleys
so alone
you can feel
your heartbeat
we we walking down the street
hand in hand
having fun
with the people we'd meet
she said " what a crazy night
feel like dancin' and a-prancin
doin' it right"
there were voices everywhere
coming at us from the darkness
filling the air
she said "let's go back inside
where the the people are more friendly--
where we can hide
(chorus)
