On The Avenue

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
