there was no one nothing to see. the night is useless and so are we. cause everybody knows. the fabric of folly is fallen apart at the seams. and i've been lookin' for a good time. but the pleasures are seldom and few. there's no whiskey there's no wine. just the concrete and a worried mind. cos everone knows death creeps in slow. til you feel safe in his arms. and i've been lookin' for a new friend. and i don't care if he's decrepit and grey. o maria haven't you known. days so careless. all on your own. everybody knows the circus is closed. and the animals have gone wild. and i've been lookin' for my shadow. but this place is so bright and so clean. there was no one nothing to see. the night is useless and so are we. cause everybody knows. the fabric of folly is fallen apart at the seams. and i've been lookin' for a good time. but the pleasures are seldom and few.
