[Walking downtown]
It's strange here, it's funny in a way
Is it the night air makes it this way

10,000 streets under an orange sky
And a million stories in a fully clothed city
And i've heard every one of them
[Not only that] I've been every one of them
[Not only that] Nobody's interested anyway

This place stinks like Chicago
[Junkie town, junkie town]
It smells of cabbage and grey water
[Junkie town, junkie town]
There's fear round here
It steams the place up
Seeping out through the cracks and basements
But i'm walking out
No i'm not afraid
The grass is greener on the newest graves

When the last jive had been jiven
Those left alive just upped and risen
From the damp walls and clammy tongues
And the quickly cooling sweat of lousy sex
Huh?
[6345789]
Yeah that's my number
[6345789]
Why don't you come by some time
And you know, dial it up
Some day you wonder how these things begin
Don't look, it'll happen anyway
When one thing leads to maybe 5 or 6
You eat well, you sleep well, and that's saying something these days

Walking downtown

I don't want to think like this
I wanna think like an animal
[Junkie town, junkie town]
I exist, therefore i'm happy
[Junkie town, junkie town]
If you come here to look for your world
Please leave your muscles with the hat check girl
Everybody in the Eyelash Set
Start their hearts with whatever's left
[6345789]
That's the number, say it again
[6345789]
You gotta make note of it
Some time when you drop by
You know, dial it up

Walking downtown

Sometimes I feel like i'm the first person to set foot in America
Who looked around and thought
What the fuck is this?
