IN THE CITY OF EIGTH MILLION PEOPLE

LONELINESS JUST COULDN'T BE SHARED

THERE I WAS AGAIN IN THE HOUSE OF LOST REGRETS

WITH BURNED OUT HYPOCRATES

THE INCRAWD SAID

THEY'D BE HIP TILL THEY WERE DEAD

THEY'RE WORE THAT COOLNESS OF THEIRS WITH PRIDE

AND DIGNITY

YEAH YEAH...



IF YOU WANNA HEAR SOME THRUTH

I'LL SIT DOWN AND TALK TO YOU

DOWN ON CENTER AVENUE

I'LL SHOW YOU THAT THE BLUES

JUST AIN'T SOMETHING YOU LOOSE

DOWN ON CENTER AVENUE



SHARP DRESSED OPINIONATED PEOPLE

DEDICATED FOLLOWERS OF FASHION

WITH THEIR POINTED HEADS

BUYING ALL THE REASONS THEY NEEDED

TO LIVE IN THEIR STORYBOOK DOWNTOWN DEAD ENDS

WITH FOUNDIMENTAL LIBERTIES

THAT WEAR IN MAJORITY OF ONE

THEY WERE SWIMMING DOWN THE DRAIN OF FREEDOM

IF YOU ASK ME I JUST BARELY GIVE THEM A 10% STATUS

IN THE COOL PARADE BUT NO ONE EVER ASKED ME

SO I WOKE UP EVERY MORNIG TOOK A GOOD LOOK AROUND

AND WHEN I THOUGHT THINKS MIGHT BE OKAY

I REALIZAD THIS SMALL TOWN CROWD

WITH LITTLE DREAMS WERE BUYING ALL THE TIME THEY NEEDED

TO FIND REASONS TO BE YEAH...

SO LISTEN KNOW LOOK ME UP SOMETIMES

AND BRING ALONG SOME WINE



IF YOU WANNA HEAR SOME THRUTH

I'LL SIT DOWN AND TALK TO YOU

DOWN ON CENTER AVENUE

I'LL SHOW YOU THAT THE BLUES

JUST AIN'T SOMETHING YOU LOOSE

DOWN ON CENTER AVENUE



AND THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD BE DONE

NO... OH... OH... OH.... OH..... OH............

THE INCRAWD ALWAYS SAID

THEY'D BE HIP TILL THEY WERE DEAD

THEY'RE WORE THAT COOLNESS OF THEIRS WITH PRIDE

AND DIGNITY
