on the avenue şarkı sözü

words and music by roddy frame

everybody´s walking through the city all alone
but no one talks about it
i am just a simple, unassuming kind of man
so neither do i
but i walk like the rest and try to do my best
´til i´m beaten, ´til i´m blue
and it shines like the sun inside of everyone
like the neon that i see in the rain
on the avenue

everybody´s dreaming ´bout a city in the sky
where we can live without love
i am just a simple, unassuming kind of guy
so so do i
but to feed you from a shell, fill you up and wish you
well.
that´s my reason, it´s what i do
and it shines in the guise of egyptian sparkling eyes
in the basement of a hotel
paradise
on the avenue

and if the hotel burns down
we´d probably drown ´neath the firemens´ hoses
holy moses!
i would still believe that paradise
was there with you
never blue
stuck like glue
on the avenue
