Spectators line the avenue
|
The players step out right on cue
|
And every night just seems the same
|
Nameless faces play their game
|
|
The midnight gamblers place their bets
|
The tight-rope walkers check their nets
|
Then comes the queen of broken hearts
|
This is the way it always starts
|
|
Finders find love for the evening
|
Keepers keep the love they've found
|
Losers lose and wind up weeping
|
But it's the only game in town
|
|
All hail the third string debutante
|
She tries to act so nonchalant
|
Chasin' the prince of alibis
|
Into a smokescreen made of lies
|
|
Finders find love for the evening
|
Keepers keep the love they've found
|
Losers lose and wind up weeping
|
But it's the only game in town
|
|
My window looks down on the set
|
Each night the players strut and fret
|
So if you'd like to join the rest
|
Just choose the part that suits you best
|
|
Finders find love for the evening
|
Keepers keep the love they've found
|
Losers lose and wind up weeping
|
But it's the only game in town
|
