=======================
When the only sound on the empty street, is the heavy tread of the heavy feet,
that belong to a lonesome cop, I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down, on the wayward ways of this wayward town
that her smile becomes a smirk, I go to work
Love for sale, appetizing young love for sale
love that's fresh and still unspoiled, love that's only slightly soiled
love for sale
who will buy, who would like to sample my supply
who's prepared to pay the price, for a trip to paradise
love for sale
let the poets pipe of love, in their childish ways,
I know every type of love, better far than they
if you want the thrill of love, I have been through the mill of love
old love, new love, every love but true love
love for sale, appetizing young love for sale
if you want to buy my wares follow me and climb the stairs,
love for sale
