Benny Dancer’s comin’ down fast
He ain't the first and he won't be the last
Like a half starved wino with a circus face
He's a losing ticket in a one horse race
He'll never get there
In the night cries out in a kind of scream
Like a rat in a cage in a crazy dream
Here the rough traits watchin’ every schooled out move
Jumped out city in a switchblade groove
He'll never get there
So he cuts cross town looking out to connect
Like a tightrope walker who's short of a net
And it's one for the money and it's two for the show
But it's dog eat dog when you're going down slow
Benny tries to remember what it might have been
But he's a burned out dancer with a killin’ machine
He'll never get there
