North Parade

People come

And people go

On the North Parade

Painting pictures

Of paradise

At the penny arcade

But as the arcade penny claw

Comes a rapping

To my door

On the North Parade

They’ve all gone away

On the North Parade

Deserted again

A lamp it flickers

Behind the blind

At the end of the day

A stranger looks out

To the cove

From the passage way

But as the arcade penny claw

Comes a rapping

To my door

On the North Parade

They’ve all gone away

On the North Parade

Deserted again

There’s a boy

That can’t go home

He walks out here alone

On the North Parade

They’ve all gone away

On the North Parade

The World seems so strange
