Working man,
cruising along the strip
killing time before his
midnight shift... begins.
A rush of fancy,
mainlined in a sordid world
the fix is there, what he needs
is a working girl... tonight.

Painted ladies, out for a stroll.
Haggling prices, ready to roll.
Cars drive by checking the action.
It's a voyeur s dream...
if you know what I mean.

A car pulls up, the girl gets in
15 minutes, she's back again.
Hard to make it, working the night time.
You don' t know who you ll meet
when you re out on the street.

The bars shut down, an hour to go,
hope for one more, cause business is slow.
Daytime hypocrites preach about sin.
But tonight they're here with money again.
