| Smack in the middle, but so much on the outside |
| And everybody has a story to tell (all lifelong) |
| In languages I can’t dream of understanding |
| Americana cats, with leather jackets in the sun |
| Making out with the burqa-clad madonnas |
| The sweet perfume that strides by on gracious feet |
| And the fashion stalls so fiercely out of date |
| And we’re representing everybody |
| We just can’t start no war |
| Keeps me curious |
| A wild seed in this well-groomed bed (growing faster) |
| A firm oasis in the dry city renewal |
| Americana cats… |
| We are a part of everybody |
| People pouring out of holes in walls |
| And they go right in front of your bicycle |
| Dart the masses, skip a heartbeat |
| Scoot to miss a toddler without a leash |
| Just as you think you’re all thru the peril |
| There’s a running little baby sheik |
| Americana cats, with leather jackets in the sun |
| Making out with the burqa-clad madonnas |
| The sweet perfume striding by on gracious feet |
| And the fashion stalls so fiercely out of date |
| In this brick road that kisses your bare feet |
| Underneath all these cultural revolutions |
| The warmth I meet as I talk to people |
| Parallelled by no other place around |
| Pandemonium breaks loose as I watch |
| Who’s dancing? |
| I can’t see past the crowd |
| Got no choice but to partake in the dancing in the street |
| Embracing people I’ll never see again |
