Lyrics

You tell me this town ain't got no heart

You assert that this town lacks emotion or vitality

(Well, well, well, you can never tell)

(Uncertainty or disagreement about the accuracy of the claim)

The sunny side of the street is dark

The positive or optimistic aspect of the street is obscured or absent

(Well, well, well, you can never tell)

(Uncertainty or disagreement about the accuracy of the claim)


Maybe that's cause it's midnight, in the dark of the moon besides

Possibly the town appears lifeless because it's midnight during the dark phase of the moon

Or maybe the dark is from your eyes

Alternatively, the darkness could be a perception from your own eyes

(Maybe the dark is from your eyes)

(Suggesting that the darkness might be subjective or internal)

Maybe the dark is from your eyes

Repetition emphasizing the possibility of the darkness originating from one's own eyes

(Maybe the dark is from your eyes)

-

Maybe the dark is from your eyes

-

(Maybe the dark is from your eyes)

-

You know you got such dark eyes

Acknowledgment of the presence of dark eyes in the individual


Nothin' shakin' on Shakedown Street

No significant activity or excitement on Shakedown Street

Used to be the heart of town

It used to be the vibrant center of the town

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart

Challenging the previous claim that the town lacks heart

You just gotta poke around

Exploration and curiosity are needed to discover the town's heart


You say you've seen this town clear through

You declare having a complete understanding of this town

(Well, well, well, you can never tell)

(Uncertainty or disagreement about the accuracy of the claim)

Nothin' here that could interest you

No attractions here that could capture your interest

(Well, well, well, you can never tell)

(Uncertainty or disagreement about the accuracy of the claim)

It's not because you missed out on the thing we had to start

Suggesting that missing out on something important may be the reason for the perception


Maybe you had too much too fast

Considering the possibility of excessive or fast-paced experiences affecting perception

(Maybe you had too much too fast)

-

Maybe you had too much too fast

-

(Maybe you had too much too fast)

-

Maybe you had too much too fast

-

(Maybe you had too much too fast)

-

Or just over played your part

-

Nothin' shakin' on shakedown street

No significant activity or excitement on Shakedown Street

Used to be the heart of town

It used to be the vibrant center of the town

Don't tell me this town ain't got no heart

Challenging the previous claim that the town lacks heart

You just gotta poke around

Reiteration that exploration and curiosity are needed to discover the town's heart


Well, well, well, you can never tell

Uncertainty or disagreement about the accuracy of the claim regarding the lack of activity

Nothin' shakin' on shakedown street

-

Well, well, well, you can never tell

Expressing a feeling of agitation or excitement on Shakedown Street

You got me shakin' on Shakedown Street

-

Well, well, well

(Repetition) Uncertainty or disagreement about the accuracy of the claims made

Well, well, well

-

Well, well, well, you can never tell
