All the boys, they wander around the blocks, each evening
Just seeking something, killing time once again
See them throwing pebbles at the wheels of sport cars
And looking at the minis of girls who don't care about them
All the boys, they wander around the blocks, each evening
'Cos in the evening you can't see the greyness
The dirty streets are shadowed and the lampposts are broken
And you can pretend that you've really gone for a walk
All the boys, they wander around the blocks, each evening
They dream of living in lands of distinction
Staring at the empty binoculars of bottles
They discuss all-American motion pictures
All the boys, they wander around the blocks, each evening
Or sit along the pavement smoke joints for pleasure
All their efforts to flee become stronger
When they really can it's too late
They can't move any longer
