and n0body can blame us
though all too often we forget

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

sidesaddle
all cities have the same
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

company
heads are turning on old compton street
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
old compton street
