Strange girl fingers send a shiver up my thighs
She speak in tongues when she looks into my eyes
She'll claw my back up just to get a rise
But when I tell her about my problems
She don't sympathize, ha, ha, ha
She says, "We're all alone in the big city"

O violence tempting violence
We try to make it count
Sensations rise as the doubt begin to mount
A quality performance is what it's all about
Rock and roll is easy it's love that you surmount
You see we're all alone in the big city
