Pretty girls on roller skates
Pretty boys on roller skates
Roach clip feathers in her hair
She will take him anywhere

Holding hands at couple skate
Their parents let them stay out late
Playing pinball, trading smiles
They skate in circles, miles and miles

Round and round and round they go
Where they stop nobody knows

Red light, green light

High heeled shoes and skin tight jeans
Killed her soft romantic dreams
Track marks creep along her skin
It's getting much too late to win

Yesterday was kick the can
Today is the pusher man
Mainline in the van next door
Nodding on the dirty floor

Round and round and round she goes
Where she'll stop nobody knows

Red light, green light

Pretty girls on roller skates
Pretty boys on roller skates
Roach clip feathers in her hair
Her roller skates got lost somewhere

The pretty boys all stop to stare
The roach clip's gone and burned her hair
She hides her face and starts to cry
The roller skating girls walk by

Round and round and round she goes
Where she'll stop nobody knows

Red light, green light
