Stepping out to angelluccis for my coffee beans
Checking out the movies and the magazines
Waitress she watches me crossing from the barocco bar
Im getting a pickup for my steel guitar
I saw you walking out shaftesbury avenue
Excuse me talking I wanna marry you
This is seventh heaven street to me
Dont be so proud
Youre just another angel in the crowd
And Im walking in he wild west end
Walking with your wild best friend
And my conductress on the number nineteen
She was a honey
Pink toenails and hands all dirty with money
Greasy hair easy smile
Made me feel nineteen for a while
And I went down to chinatown
In the backroom its a mans world
All the money go down
Duck inside the doorway gotta duck to eat
Right now feels alright now
You and me we cant beat
And a gogo dancing girl yes I saw her
The deejay he say heres mandy for ya
I feel alright to see her
But shes paid to do that stuff
Shes dancing high I move on by
The close ups can get rough
When youre walking in the wild west end
