Lyrics

There's a cello in the city With a melody all its own A cello in the city With a melody all its own And it screams and it cries And it helps separate all the lies in your head So you don't have to take 'em to bed And it groans and it moans Melts with something playing the Rolling Stones And the whip comes down There's a black tunnel in the city With a melody all its own A black tunnel in the city With a rhythm all its own And there's a man named Clem On the telephone who don't want to be so alone So he calls Rock 'n' Roll Mary Mary's got a date tonight She swears everything's gonna turn out all right finally But she gotta run There's a cello in the city With a melody all its own There's a cello in the city With a melody all its own And I hear it whine and hum And sleep with all the rich men that dine And in the streets with the bums Knows no partiality When you're walking home alone Down on street number three or Avenue B It groans and melts with something playing Rolling Stones
