We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise

What does it matter when I look in your eyes?

We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars

We're lying in the gutter but we're looking at the stars



I get excited, you get excited too

I get excited, you get excited too



I hear the sound of the subway, the sigh of the heat

the click of the visitors' heels on the street

the rattle of the taxi, the scream of the cars

the clatter of the dustbin and the beat of my heart



I get excited, you get excited too

I get excited, you get excited too

I don't know why, I don't know why

I don't know why, I don't know why



You're in my soul

My body moves to your control

Baby, I've been thinking about you

all night long and the neighbours are talking



I don't know why, I don't know why

I don't know why, I don't know why



We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise

What does it matter when I look in your eyes?

We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars

We're lying in the gutter but we're looking at the stars



I get excited, you get excited too

I get excited, you get excited too

I don't know why, I don't know why

I don't know why, I don't know why
