Fourteenth street, the garbage swirls like a cyclone
Three o'clock in the afternoon and I'm going home
F train is full of high school students
So much shouting, so much laughter
Last night's underwear in my back pocket
Sure sign of the morning after
Take me home
Take me home and leave me there
I think I want to cry, I don't know why
I think I'm gonna sing myself a lullaby
Feel free to listen
Feel free to stare
I live in New York, New York
City that never shuts up
In the daylight everything is so gory
You can hear snatches of strangers' sorry stories
And I moved there from Buffalo but that's nothing
The Trico plant moved to Mexico
Left my uncle standing out in the cold
Said here's your last paycheck, have fun growing old
Take me home
Take me home and leave me there
I think I want to cry, I don't know why
I think I'm gonna sing myself a lullaby
Feel free to listen
Feel free to stare
Rock-a-bye baby in the treetop
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all
Youth is beauty, money is beauty
Hell, beauty is beauty sometimes
It's the luck of the draw, it's the natural law
It's a joke, it's a crime
But I was bored and you were bored
It was a meeting of the minds
And now it's three in the afternoon and I can't leave too soon
Saying thank you, I had a nice time
Take me home
Take me home and leave me there
I think I want to cry, I don't know why
I think I'm gonna sing myself a lullaby
Feel free to listen
Feel free to stare
Rock-a-bye baby in the treetop
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all
Maybe I'll live my whole life just getting by
Maybe I'll be discovered, maybe I'll be colonized
You could try to train me like a pet
You could try to teach me to behave
But I'll tell you if I haven't learned it yet
You know I ain't gonna sit, I ain't gonna stay
Take me home
Take me home and leave me there
I think I want to cry, I don't know why
I think I'm gonna sing myself a lullaby
Feel free to listen
Feel free to stare
Feel free to listen
Feel free to stare
Feel free to listen
Feel free to stare
