Lloyd Cole - Downtown Lyrics
I want to take you down to the side of the cityWhere the sun doesnt shine and the moon isnt prettyThe slow train crawls in the nights and the daysAre as warm as the smoke and the heat hazeYes and neon here twenty-four hours of the dayAnd youre sure looking pretty when its hitting on your faceLooker on the corner take that dog for a donorWell shes only doing what her mother told herI...i wanna take you downI wanna take you downI wanna take you right downI...i wanna take you downI wanna take you downI wanna take you right downI want to see a touch of evil in your eyeBut all that Im getting babe is sweetness and liesI want to see something that I might desireI want to take you down babe into the mireDeals going down no chance no maskingOne things for sure never get what youre askingTheyre coming with johnsons, theyre coming with knivesTheyre robbing your boots when they give you a shoe shineI...i wanna take you downI wanna take you downI wanna take you right downI...i wanna take you downI wanna take you downI wanna take you right downtownSlow train down, babe, try twenty-nineTheres no looking back when theres no sense of timecause its neon here twenty-four hours of the dayAnd youre sure looking pretty when its hitting on your faceWith a touch of evil in your eyeWith a touch of evil in your eyeI want to take you down to the side of the cityI want to take you down to the blur of the cityI...i wanna take you downI wanna take you downI wanna take you right downI...i wanna take you downI wanna take you downYes I wanna take you right downI...i...i...i wanna take youI...i...i...i wanna take youI...yes I wanna take you right downtown
