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 |
