Those trucks in the street   Is it really Monday   Time to find some trouble again   Make a bid for romance   While the dollar stands a chance   Dumb love in the city at century's end      We tap to this line   Dancing on a mirror   There's no disbelief to suspend   It's the dance, it's the dress   She's a concept more or less   Dumb love in the city at century's end      (At century's end)   Nobody's holding out for heaven   It's not for creatures here below   We just suit up for a game   The name of which we used to know   It might be careless rapture      This kid's got the eye   Call it pirate radar   Scooping out the roof for some trend   But there's nobody new   So she zeroes in on you   Dumb love in the city at century's end      (At century's end)   Nobody's holding out for heaven   It's not for creatures here below   We just suit up for a game   The name of which we used to know   By now it's second nature      Scratch the camera   We can grab the locals   Let's get to the love scene, my friend   Which means look, maybe touch   But beyond that not too much   Dumb love in the city at century's end   Dumb love in the city      Love in the city at century's end   Love in the city at century's end   Love in the city at century's end   Love in the city at century's end
