[L. Hoffsten]A little place where it's quietstop at a five'n dimehe'll invite you for dinner:a packet of crackers and a bottle of wine
Postman Bob's watching tvlearning about romance and loveto get the nasty detailshe listens to noise from the apartment above
Livin' in a dead townacting like it's near bed time
Livin' in a dead townwhere standing out's the worst of crimes
Considerate Dennis is workinghard by the railroadtrackbut not even his motherknows that Dennis is a pyromaniac
Scandal Susie is dreaminglivin' in a double lifea moviestar during night-timebut in the day she plays the part of the butcher's wife
Livin' in a dead townacting like it's near bed time
Livin' in a dead townwhere standing out's the worst of crimes
