Spectators line the avenue    The players step out right on cue    And every night just seems the same    Nameless faces play their game       The midnight gamblers place their bets    The tight-rope walkers check their nets    Then comes the queen of broken hearts    This is the way it always starts       Finders find love for the evening    Keepers keep the love they've found    Losers lose and wind up weeping    But it's the only game in town       All hail the third string debutante    She tries to act so nonchalant    Chasin' the prince of alibis    Into a smokescreen made of lies       Finders find love for the evening    Keepers keep the love they've found    Losers lose and wind up weeping    But it's the only game in town       My window looks down on the set    Each night the players strut and fret    So if you'd like to join the rest    Just choose the part that suits you best       Finders find love for the evening    Keepers keep the love they've found    Losers lose and wind up weeping    But it's the only game in town
