On the main and the avenues In the condos white as bruised With the carmine of the busy liquor
There's a and mystic beauty To inner-city girls That by in the velvet of their cars
Through the dance halls and the malls And the filled with Dresden dolls To the of fallen angels on the ground
The whole city's just an expensive A nymph with a pompadour But there ain't no around
No, there ain't no woman No, there no woman around Well, I'm by these girls But there just ain't no woman
And the girl fills my bed Will the words I should've said To the only true I ever found
I'll that make-up in her purse Is a day-dream, not a That comes to kick me down I can still taste the of her kiss
Maybe it's the childhood that I The first time around there's a weird to her charms There's a strange meat on her 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 just ain't no woman around
Sometimes I I'm running a fever through the night And run myself straight into the ground
I miss smile, your name And your breath on my And I'm and alone in this crowd
From the locks and and strings of pearls To the drunk and eager, girls It's an all-day show Matinee in town And it suddenly occurs that I'm surrounded by girls But there ain't no woman
No, ain't no woman around No, ain't no woman around Well, I'm surrounded by girls But just ain't no woman around
