|
Where the streets are paved |
|
With chewing gum and beer |
|
Where the wisest of men |
|
Are the men you don't ever see around here |
|
Where the aftershave is killing every taste |
|
Where the women forgot |
|
What they got all dressed up for in the very first place |
|
And when all that you need |
|
Is just a little room to breathe |
|
When you dance this thin, thin line |
|
Oh man, you better be kind |
|
And you better be kind |
|
Or stop wasting, wasting my time |
|
And you better be kind |
|
At the age you're sixteen, you feeling wise and old |
|
And the streets of your dreams |
|
Seem to be paved with sex and gold |
|
Where the booze makes fools, feels so lion strong |
|
When the morning time drops all it's |
|
Here you go's |
|
, down, oh man, what have I done |
|
And when all that you need |
|
Is just a little room to breathe |
|
When the best that you can |
|
Doesn't cut it for them |
|
When all that you see |
|
Is what they want you to see |
|
When you dance this thin, thin line |
|
Oh man, you better be kind |
|
You better be kind |
|
Or stop wasting, wasting my time |
|
And you better be kind |
|
Ooh, you better be kind |
