You got lost in the crowd. The waves of people in Chinatown. Can't get behind this mystery. Do you believe everything you see. Just a shadow in the streetlight. Just a shadow on the wall. A silhouette face in the darkness. I've been waiting for the call. Chorus:. We'll go marching in the night parade. We'll be marching in the night parade. I combed the streets like cloak and dagger. I put the word out on the waterfront. We were living hard living fast. Outrunning ghosts from the past. Just a shadow in the moonlight. Just a shadow on the wall. A silhouette the kiss of death. Did somebody take the fall. Chorus. Mary Mary Mary I'm knocking on your door. Mary Mary sanctuary can't see you no more. From out of the past a stranger came. And carried you away. I stood on the corner the scene of the crime. And I could here her say. Chorus. We're living in a street opera. Are we just living in a street opera. Chorus. Walking the night beat. The rhythm of the street. Moving to the heartbeat of the city. Chorus.
