where the bright young things turn up the heat
pound the beat, no holds barred

one street that knows no shame
a bright facade whose surface is thin
but hard as a nail
sidesaddle and comapny
scratch it and sniff
but never inhale

ears are burning while the endless stream passes by
rainbow flags are flying high
try a slice of life
every vice is rife
here where all worlds meet
