Tear drops on the city
Bad Scooter searching for his groove
Seem like the whole world walking pretty
And you can t find the room to move
Well everybody better move over, that s all
Cause I m running on the bad side
And I got my back to the wall
Tenth Avenue freeze-out, Tenth Avenue freeze-out
I m stranded in the jungle
Tryn to take all the heat they was giving
The night is dark but the sidewalk s bright
And lined with the light of the living
From a tenement a transistor blasts
Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast
I walked into a Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Tenth Avenue freeze-out
And I m all alone, I m all alone
And kid you better get the picture
And I m on my own, I m on my own
And I can t go home
When the change was made uptown
And the Big Man joined the band
From the coastline to the city
All the little pretties raise their hands
I m gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When Scooter and the Big Man bust this city in half
With a Tenth Avenue freeze-out, Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Tenth Avenue freeze-out...
