Downtown at Dawn (Destiny Street - 2021 Remaster)

Drop out

Down in downtown there's a club I want to take me to

Where I can hide and slip inside the crack of dawn with you

And you and you and you and you too

And every ghoul and every fool and every drunk and broken rule

Can be the same, there's no address, no way to find the place

Just slide yourself down downtown 'til you start to lose your face

And you, of which there ain't the slightest trace

Don't care no more, we're all a whore

And now you stand inside the door

Downtown at dawn where they drip through the door

Downtown at dawn where we rub through the nerve

Downtown at dawn at the drop out nightclub, drop out nightclub

Drop out

By indolence and insolence a lover never lies

Yes, only drop out disco offers love so undisguised

That you just get all de-civilized

And coalesce, remove your dress and think about it less and less

Drop out good for nothings can remove from any mind

The crystallizing labyrinth in love to be confined

That you can best escape by dropping out

And dropping in and dropping out and dropping in and out again

Downtown at dawn where the good clues all go

Downtown at dawn we forget all we know

Downtown at dawn at the drop out disco, drop out disco

Drop out

By indolence and insolence a lover's realized

Yes, only drop out dance hall offers love so undisguised

That you just get all de-civilized

And coalesce, you feel your best and think about it less and less

Drop out paratroopers can remove from any mind

The crystallizing labyrinth in jail of love to find

That you can best escape by dropping out

And dropping in and dropping out and dropping in and out again

Downtown at dawn where the fallen are tall

Downtown at dawn hear the call to the ball

Downtown at dawn at the drop out dance hall, drop out dance hall
