    Story Behind the Song
    The degradation of our home town is vividly
    shown in this soundscape

    Lyrics
    Uptown Saturday Night

    There's a man on the street, I think he might be dead
    No one cares, they just walk on by
    I think maybe somebody should call the police
    I don't mind, I've got nothing else better to do for awhile

    And the man of the hour is smiling to hide
    his embarrassment of what has just transpired
    And a little boy becomes an entrepreneur
    Selling bubble gum to the gathering crowd
    And the music is playing a little too loud
    From the open doors of the new billiards hall
    And the sidewalk is covered with spiky haired guys
    Smoking cigarettes thinking they look real cool

    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night

    There's a lady I know, she's living out in the park
    No one knows, they look the other way
    She says that she's having the time of her life
    I suppose you don't need a home to share a pizza with friends

    And the man on the corner is holding a sign
    And yelling at the people that are walking by
    Just a little bit further south of the center
    Is a brand new restaurant that won't survive
    And the music is getting a little bit louder
    As they close the doors to the new billiards hall
    You can smell something funny when the wind blows your way
    Bringing back a memory of some other day

    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
    Let's walk under the light
    Uptown Saturday night
