Downtown

(album: Heartattack And Vine - 1980)

red pants and the sugarman in, the temple street gloom, drinking chivas
regal in a four dollar room, just another dead soldier in a powder blue night,
sugarman says baby everything's alright, going downtown down downtown.

montclaire de havelin doing the st. vitus dance, looking for someone to chop
the lumber in his pants, how am i gonna unload all of this ice and all this
mink, all the traffic in the street but it's so hard to think, going downtown
down downtown.

frankie's wearing lipstick pierre cardin, i swear to god i seen him holding
hands with jimmy bond, sally's high on crank and hungry for some sweets, she's
fem in the sheets but she's butch in the streets, going downtown down
downtown.

it's the cool of the evening the sun's going down, i want to hold you in my
arms i want to push you around, i want to break your bottle and spill out all
your charms, come on baby we'll set off all the burglar alarms, going downtown
down downtown.

red pants and the sugarman in the temple, drinking chivas regal in a four
dollar room, just another dead soldier in a powder blue night, red pants turns
to sugarman and says everything's alright, going downtown down downtown.
