Hey kiss me I kiss you Kiss me I kiss you I know about you I've been told about you I've been waiting for you And the air's thin Tiny holes And everybody wants to know you Is rapt like moon river Then beyond the blinds The new white slacks alight Sliding into the city Tunnel beneath the feet of the people in the city Roamin' roamin' roamin' in the city And crossway boy Crossway boy Downtown waterfront boy And the shadows where the ambi and the motor meet And she's on the phone again Surfin' she's on the phone again She's calling from America She's calling from America She's surfin' she's moshing And the girls are diving and the girls are up to something Animal boy thing up on the roof again Boy thing lookin'down there And there's every kind of lack To make it down to the Delaware And up in your head And moaner moaner moaner moaner Rudy get the get the get the get the get the Night the city loves you City loves a boyfriend Love walks with a boyfriend A city loves a boyfriend Friends walking with a boyfriend And the night's with a boyfriend And the city loves you loves you loves you Loves everyone Everyone is smiling The smiling is pushing it around It's pushing it around Like shadows in the evolution in the dark And the super boys Where time is all where time is everything Where time of all this started As we're turned to earth earth wind and fire Get the sound in your head Black metal walls are crawling I am the hunger above your town A little sound in a little amp I am dubious hard metal I am stainless I am milk in your plastic I am wrapped in this left alone In a full moon with The only thing I can do Lying awake on the floor At night the doors I can't I can't awake I can't awake Ah ah ah ah Water into you to me constantly Constantly Without without without without again without again Your telephone number Through the glass of water The instance between is opened The silence is indifferent and your love love love Love walks with the boyfriend The city loves a boyfriend Friends walking Friends walking with a boyfriend The city loves a boyfriend Everybody loves a boyfriend You left me alone you left me alone With a full moon Full moon full moon full moon full moon full moon Boys boys boys boys Cross crossway crossway boy Down on the waterfront
