Song lyrics after the jump
The sunny side of the street is dark. Well, well, well, you can never tell.
Maybe that's cause it's midnight, in the dark of the moon besides.
Maybe the dark is from your eyes, Maybe the dark is from your eyes,
Maybe the dark is from your eyes, Maybe the dark is from your eyes,
Maybe the dark is from your eyes, Maybe the dark is from your eyes,
You know you got such dark eyes!
Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street. Used to be the heart of town.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.
You think you've seen this town clear through.
Well, well, well, you can never tell.
Nothin' here that could int'rest you. Well, well, well, you can never tell.
It's not because you missed out on the thing that we had to start.
Maybe you had too much too fast. Maybe you had too much too fast.
Maybe you had too much too fast. Maybe you had too much too fast.
Maybe you had too much too fast. Maybe you had too much too fast.
Or just over played your part.
Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street. Used to be the heart of town.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.
Since I'm passing your way today. Well, well, well, you can never tell.
I just stopped in 'cause I want to say, Well, well, well, you can never tell.
I recall your darkness when it crackled like a thundercloud.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart.
When I can hear it beat out loud!
Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street. Used to be the heart of town.
Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart. You just gotta poke around.

Al Gore is rich and the earth is still polluted. Why? China isn't ripe for the Al Gore shakedown.
Jesse and Al are rich - to the tune of 25+million, why?
Shakedown baby. Shakedown.
My clients told me today they saw Al Gore's private 737 jet at the airport in Jackson Hole Wy.
The beat, given the year -- 1978 -- was pure disco.
Disco. Never a fan. But that's not bad. Nice bass.
Pink Floyd has a new CD coming out. It's called "Getting Older Sucks"
have a listen.
You can count on me for serious discussion, Chickl;)
@April: LOL at the Floyd parody! I will front page that in an upcoming KLEM FM.
According to Wiki "It [the song] depicts the reasons for inner-city urban decay."
The lyrics are by Robert Hunter, the only non-performing member of a band inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
I was in the car driving when I heard Pink Floyd and I lolled unexpectedly. The best kind of lol.
