Coney Island Winter |
| Vanity strikes |
| Humility speaks |
| Insanity lives on the edge of the streets |
| This is a story, it happens every day |
| Politicians kiss my ass |
| Your promises they break like glass |
| Royalty looks down |
| Me, I want to kiss the ground |
| Twenty-two stops to the city |
| Twenty-two stops to the city |
| Twenty-two stops to the city |
| Twenty-two stops |
| Freezin' cold no time to weep |
| Boardwalk’s dead on a midnight creep |
| It’s colder than a polar bear |
| But I don’t care |
| Coney Island winter |
| Coney Island winter |
| Woman walks down the street |
| Tears come rollin' down her face |
| Frozen on her cheeks |
| Steeplechase, no time to waste |
| Heaven blessed, heaven sent |
| Hark the angels, can’t pay the rent |
| Jobs are gone, they came and went |
| All the money has been spent |
| All the games are broken down |
| Rust is fallin' to the ground |
| They say they’re going to fix this town |
| Straight from City Hall |
| Coney Island winter |
| Coney Island winter |
| Last stop off for the Iron Horse |
| Ride shuts down on a winter course |
| Round and round, round and round |
| On the Ferris Wheel comes to a stop |
| Standin' on Mermaid and Surf |
| Shutters have been shut |
| Colder than a knife that cut |
| Streets of summer |
| Coney Island strut |
| I’m on a mission of my own |
| Don’t wanna die on stage |
| With a microphone in my hand |
| Coney Island winter |
| Coney Island winter |
| Coney Island winter |
| Coney Island winter |
