Queen Of The Surface Streets |
| Well this is one place where |
| Your gods can’t dwell |
| It’s like walking in To the mouth of hell |
| Sweating our dignities out on the subway |
| At the beginning of another long, long day |
| As for my mortal remains |
| I couldn’t care |
| 'Cause when the day is done |
| She’ll be waiting here |
| That’s when I love the accommodations |
| In a urine smelling transit station |
| I’ll move these rocks |
| For you my love |
| I will tear them up out of the Earth |
| And I will bend my spine |
| 'Til it’s quitting time |
| 'Cause I know what your time is worth |
| And I’ll give my days to the Neanderthals |
| With the classic rock |
| And the wrecking ball |
| I’ll go swimming in the wet concrete |
| And I’ll cast my pearls at the unpaved streets |
| I don’t mind the mental atrophy |
| 'Cause when the lids come down, you’re all I see |
| You’re like a lovely hallucination |
| You get me through my current occupation |
| I’ll move these rocks |
| For you my love |
| I will tear them up out of the Earth |
| And I will bend my spine |
| 'Til it’s quitting time |
| 'Cause I know what your time is worth |
| See I’m towering |
| Above mortal men |
| I’ll emerge from the darkness |
| And there you stand |
| You’re the Queen of all the surface streets |
| I’m a wiener boy, that you’re here to meet |
| I don’t need the money |
| I couldn’t care |
| 'Cause everything I want is standing right here |
| I would live on the street |
| In a cardboard shack |
| Just the worship the feet |
| And the curve of your back |
| You’ll be my only preoccupation |
| On a permanent vacation |
| Now I will move these rocks |
| For you my love |
| I will tear them up out of the Earth |
| And I will bend my spine |
| 'Til it’s quitting time |
| 'Cause I know what your love is worth |
| What your love is worth |
| What your love is worth |
