Pick up the storyline we know it like the back of our hands
Another day is young and you get it on by workin' on plans
The song of our youth remains and growing pains don’t happen by chance
A band is marching past and movin’ fast, their voices enhanced
Now you hear it whenever you want it
yeah the beat is loud, but anyhow they are singin’ out
and hummin’ a tune
CHORUS
Of our baby blues, baby blues ( 2 x )
Down on Market Street where the marquee reads “the balcony is closed”
Behind a velvet rope many wait and hope for an 8 p.m. show
None of the lights are lit the ticket taker sits in faux repose
Them ol’ rusted out cans are open now and the film exposed
Now you see it whenever you want it
Lookin' back in time you might find the storyline
will tell you the truth
