On the streets and the avenues In the condos as knuckles bruised the carmine of the busy liquor bars
There's a and mystic beauty To inner-city girls slide by in the velvet of their cars
Through the dance and the shopping malls And the subways with Dresden dolls To the school of fallen angels on the
The city's just an expensive whore A nymph with a pompadour But there ain't no around
No, there ain't no woman No, there ain't no woman Well, I'm by these girls But there just no woman around
And the girl fills my bed Will hear the I should've said To the true love I ever found
I'll pretend that make-up in her Is a day-dream, not a That comes just to kick me I can still the youth of her kiss
Maybe it's the that I missed The first time around there's a shape to her charms There's a strange meat on her But there ain't no around
No, there ain't no woman No, there no woman around Well, I'm surrounded by girls But there just ain't no woman
Sometimes I I'm running Like a through the night And I've run straight into the ground
I your smile, your name And breath on my skin And I'm lost and alone in this
From the locks and curls and strings of To the drunk and eager, girls It's an all-day floor show Matinee in And it occurs that I'm surrounded by these girls But ain't no woman around
No, there ain't no around No, there ain't no woman Well, I'm by these girls But there just ain't no around
