You got lost

In the crowd

The waves of people in Chinatown

Can't get behind

This mystery

Do you believe everything you see



Just a shadow

In the streetlight

Just a shadow on the wall

A silhouette

Face in the darkness

I've been waiting

For your call



We'll go marching in the night parade

We'll be marching in the night parade



I combed the streets

Like cloak and dagger

I put the word out on the waterfront

We were living hard

Living fast

Outrunning ghosts

From the past



Just a shadow

In the moonlight

Just a shadow

Shadow on the wall

A silhouette

The kiss of death

Did somebody

Take the fall



We'll go marching in the night parade

We'll be marching in the night parade



Oh Mary Mary Mary

I'm knocking on your door

Mary Mary sanctuary

Can't see you no more

From out of the past

A stranger came

And carried you away

I stood on the corner

The scene of the crime

And I could hear her say



We'll be marching

In the night parade

We'll be marching

Marching

In the night parade



We'll go marching

Marching on the

In the nightparade

We'll go marching marching

In the nightparade

In the nightparade



Are we all living in a street opera

Are we just living in a street opera



Oh we'll be marching

Oh oh in the night parade

Oh Lord

We'll be marching

Marching out in the night parade

In the nightparade



Walking the night beat

The rhythm of the street

Moving to the heartbeat of the city

The city

Walking the night beat

The rhythm of the street

Moving to the heartbeat of the city

The city



Way downtown

Moving to the heartbeat of the city



We'll be marching

In the night parade

We'll be marching

People neither

Come on in the night parade



We'll be marching

People mightier

In the night parade
