whores on sleecker street, they wear the blissful grin,
cause by the drugs they take to relieve them of their sins,
and, "oh lord, I think she's dying," I heard somebody say,
I think she's dying and, "oh, oh, lord, I think she's dying"
or maybe she's already dead, and maybe she's gone to mars,
maybe we could even write her epitaph in the stars, it'd say,
"if you go away from here, if you go a million miles,"
come downtown, to see them go, into the den of the vampires
of new york, but please watch your step, as you're getting off, kids
