Girls on the avenue
They're trying to get you in
Strolling by
With their rosebud smiles
They're all dressed up to kill
Leaned on the windowsill
Looking your way
With eyes of fire
But don't you slip
Don't you slip
In love with the girls
On the avenue
Friday night
See the girls on the avenue
Like a child at big store windows
You feel confused
So many girls on the avenue
Girls on the avenue
Know how to get you in
Casting out sighs
Like tricks from a hat
All the Miss Lonely Hearts
Ooh they look awful hard
Then sometimes they seem
As fragile as glass
But don't you slip
Don't you slip
In love with the girls
On the avenue
Friday night
See the girls on the avenue
Like a child at big store windows
You feel confused
So many girls on the avenue
Aah aah aah
Aah aah aah
But don't you slip
Don't you slip
In love with the girls
On the avenue
Friday night
See the girls on the avenue
Like a child at big store windows
You feel confused
So many girls on the avenue
Don't you slip
Don't you slip
In love with the girls on the avenue
Don't you slip
Hey now boys don't you slip
In love with the girls on the avenue
Ohh don't you slip
Hey now boys don't you slip
In love with the girls on the avenue
Hey don't you slip
Oh now boys don't you slip
In love with the girls on the avenue
