1.
You know, sometimes,
when you come down to it,
It's just the escalators
going up and
going down
that keep us all going

2.
it's like i'm falling,
it's like, i feel like i'm falling
and when i hold her,
and when i hold her,
it's like i'm no longer falling,
for her love is like concrete,
and from a great height,
i fall at her feet.

3.
There is a quiet in the city,
Beneath all the rush,
Here I can hear it,
A soft low hush.

4.
i'm out with the drunks, the punks and the shunks,
the floozies, the woozies, the see you next tuesdays,
the pricks, the dicks, the tricks on a stick,
and lastly, and leastly, i'm out without you.
