Cherry Avenue

(album: Breakdown - 1999)

And so you meet me
Down at the bar
Seventh and Cherry
That's where we are
And I promise not to take you down too far

Beetle takes a dollar
Benz will make a drink
Two will see you holler
No one wants to think
And it's que sera sera in black and pink

And so we dance
And my feet get lazy
All the stiffs here
They know I'm crazy for you
And so we dance
And the beat gets lost
And this jealous fool
Will pay the cost for you
On Cherry Avenue
On Cherry Avenue

Is this a crime
Or just a clever scheme?
I wanna make you mine
All your roads are green
And I promise not to show you what I've seen

And so we dance
And my feet get lazy
All the stiffs here
They know I'm crazy for you
And so we dance
And the beat gets lost
And this jealous fool
Will pay the cost for you
On Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)
On Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)

Now it's closing time
Benz wipes down the bar
Beetle kills the lights
Cherry after dark (Cherry after dark)

And so we dance
And my feet get lazy
All the stiffs here
They know I'm crazy for you
And so we dance
And the beat gets lost
And this jealous fool
Will pay the cost for you

And so we dance
And my feet get lazy
All the stiffs here
They know I'm crazy for you
And so we dance
And the beat gets lost
And this jealous fool
Will pay the cost for you
Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)
Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)

Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)
Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)
Cherry Avenue (Cherry Avenue)
