Lyrics
I took a walk down Rue Morgue Avenue Wearing my latest disguise Enjoying the perfume of utter dismay I was effectively anaesthetised Starving so arrogantly in jumble-sale pearls Evangeline hires out my throat We've got the streets of London mapped in our beds Nagasaki under our coats With the wide boys, up on the streets Wide boys, ah, come on and meet me Wide boys, delightfully unpleasant With our foxy adolescent sneers, oh Tired of being put down Broken hearted my life not started Tired of being cut down All your illusions disillusion me Wide boys, up on the streets Wide boys, ah, come on and meet me Wide boys, delightfully unpleasant With our foxy adolescent sneers, oh Open sore music plays the wrong side of nightmare Juke-box models collide The saint on the fire escaping bleeds into the sun Embracing the old suicide bride I spent a few lifetimes making spinal connections Down on Einstein Boulevard I'm proud to walk a tightrope, now the gravity's so high I swagger like a neon guitar With the wide boys, up on the streets Wide boys, ah, come on and meet me Wide boys, delightfully unpleasant With our foxy adolescent sneers Wide boys, up on the streets Wide boys, ah, come on and meet me Wide boys, delightfully unpleasant With our foxy adolescent sneers, oh
