Lyrics

The rain is falling, it's after dark
the streets are swimming with the sharks
It's the right night for the wrong company
and there ain't nothing round here to look at.
Move along.

The neon lights on Baltimore
Every shadow's getting famous
In some back yard in some plastic chair,
hoping these cigarettes will save us.
Here we go again.

You've got rings in your ears
and you got kicked around and made up.
Looking high looking low
Where did all the shadow people go?
Where did all the shadow people go?
I want to know where the shadow people go.

I stole a bike from the Second Mile
I saw a band play in the basement.
I crossed the path of a friend of mine,
and I knew what that look upon her face meant.
Something's gone from her eye.
Something's gone wrong.

You could be a woman, you could be a man,
wear the glove on the other hand.
You could be twisted, you could be insane,
pushing the envelope against the grain
or just playing along.

And I've got something on my mind,
I've got voices on the other line.
Saying hi, saying hello.
Where did all the shadow people go?
Where did all the shadow people go?
I want to know where the shadow people go.
