STREETS OF PAIN／RICHARD MARX 歌詞

歌：RICHARD MARX

作詞：Fee Waybill

作曲：RICHARD MARX

She's still another party blonde
Who had had it all her way
Now just another hanger on
With a faded resume
He's gonna be a leading man
In the Gary Cooper mold

Now working at a pretzel stand
But it's him that's getting sold

Big dreamer gonna take the town
But she's running out of time
Still singing at a sleazy lounge
To a house of drooling swine
Self satisfied narcissist
With a body like a god
He's thinking that's all there is
But I don't want that job

Streets of pain
They don't hear the crying
Streets of pain
Never felt the tears
Streets of pain
They just keep on lying
Get it through your head
'Cause some things never change

Won't it finally be
obvious
That there's very little
chance
Can't they see it's a
Greyhound bus
And not their handsome
prince
Isn't anybody satisfied
With the average girl next
door
Does she have to be
glamorized
So the world will love her
more

Streets of pain
Sinking like a rock in a
river
Streets of pain

Never felt so cold
Streets of pain
Lower than a snake can slither
Not to mention all the
Srories never told

Pretty girl
becomes a socialite
Standing in
somebody elese
light
Anything can
happen late at
night
In the morning
she'll be out of
sight
Made a million on
a lucky streak
Threw it all away
as foolishly
One of many
comic tragedies
What else can
there be

So you better get on the road
To the desolation station
And you better bring all you own
It's a permanent vacation
We're waiting here with open arms
But it isn't what it seems
Just looking for the boulevard
On the trail of broken dreams

Streets of pain
They don't hear the crying
Streets of pain
Never felt the tears
Streets of pain
They just keep on lying

Get it through our head
'Cause some things never change
Streets of pain
Sinking like a rock in a river
Streets of pain
Never felt so cold
Street of pain
Lower than a snake can slither
Not to mention all the
Stories never told
