up on the top is a clown
his stories never come
they take a lot of time
stop 'cause you dance all around
it's easier to fly
for a nickle & a dime
fix your eyes on the subway zone
now life is pretty flat without the dope
i wish i had, it's not so bad, oh, wish I had some hope
but I'm hanging by the tail, like a street-fighting cat
take your mind off the back-street love
show me how to move on a concrete floor
the only time, only time, only way I can stop
is dragging by the feet til your down, take me down
