Song language: English
Brooklyn |
| The last car on the line |
| I guess you’re back doing time |
| The ghost of Christmas past |
| Left Walt Whitman in the trash |
| You started out with nothing but lonely days |
| You used to like the sad songs of doom and gloom |
| You started with nothing but throwaways |
| You couldn’t live with me so you moved to |
| Brooklyn |
| Artificial desserts |
| Some have cars some have kids |
| Hit the Pathmark after work |
| Some never been past the bridge |
| You started out with nothing but lonely days |
| You used to like the sad songs of doom and gloom |
| You started with nothing but throwaways |
| You couldn’t live with me so you moved to |
| Brooklyn |
| I sometimes lie awake until sunrise |
| Wondering how we become what we despise |
| No more couches to surf |
| Only beaches in your dreams |
| No more trannies near work |
| It’s still a drag walking in Queens |
| It’s all blood money in the bank |
| Somehow some people find the nerve |
| Like the soldiers they thank down in DC |
| If I could only find the words |
