Night Owl Cafe

Lyrics

Well, the junkies still stumble past the door
 of the Night Owl Cafe
 And the club owners grumble
 The neighborhood's slippin' away
 And it's hard to remember the days when
 the music poured from the stage
 Now there's no more music
 at the Night Owl Cafe
 Well the basement is dark now
 The bulb is blown out
 I can tell by the hole in the floor
 Where the smoke used to rise
 and my partners' red eyes
 would invite me downstairs for some more
 And the kids peerin' in thru the door
 Whispered, "This neever happened before"
 Now there's no more music at the Night Owl Cafe
 No more music at the Night Owl Cafe
 Out there in space and time
 But the address has changed
 Now there's no more music at the Night Owl Cafe
 Well my friends always ask in a casual voice
 What became of that smokey cafe
 Do the players still play?
 Did the music just blow 'em away?
 But those people that ask me
 are wonderin' bout more than they'll say
 I just tell 'em there's no more music
 at the Night Owl Cafe
 No more music at the Night Owl Cafe
 Out there in space and time
 But the address has changed
 Now there's no more music at the Night Owl Cafe
