Teardrops on the city bed
Scooter searching for his groove
Seems 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
Well I was stranded in the jungle
Trying to take in all the heat they was given
Till the night is dark
With the sidewalk bright and lying
With the light of the living
From a tenement window
A transistor blast
Turn around corner
Things got real quite real fast
Walking to a tenth avenue
Breeze out
Tenth avenue freeze out
And I’m all alone
I’m all alone
And kids 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 britties raised their hands
I’m gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When old scooter
And the big man bust the city in half with
Tenth avenue freezing
Tenth avenue freezing
Tenth avenue freezing
Death avenue prison
I’m talking about a tender
Ain't nothing but a tender
I’m talkin' 'bout the tenth
Ain't nothin' but a tenth
Tenth tenth tenth
Tenth tenth tenth tenth tenth tenth
Tenth tenth tenth tenth
I’m talkin' 'bout the tenth avenue
Breeze out
Tenth avenue freeze out
Tenth avenue freeze out tenth avenue
