"I'm coming around the bend Been a long time on the avenue Lovers and losers chained to my heart Standing here waiting for you Waiting here just for you to pass through You can't wear me out I'm at a hard place and a wall Rolling down the avenue Just rolling down the avenue Blue velvet dreams, a neighbor for a friend Flying high in the city, looks good again Standing here waiting for you Waiting here just for you to pass through Motel man with a lizard hand Honky tonk Dan and an old tin can Ice cream on Sunday Lots more on Monday All lovers are fools and I'm gonna fool ya Sidewalk hurricane blowing over me Flower bomb blow out down on Redondo beach Baby I want to keep you, walk, talk and sleep you I think I'll keep you on the avenue, down on the avenue"
