the field next to the road 1981 Lyrics by Housecat

some things change, others stay the same

2024

[Verse 1]
You rolled a joint with a New Yorker, dated 1994
And went outside to smoke and locked yourself outside the door
Dropped your wallet down the fire escape stairs and into Lower Manhattan
But you couldn't pay your fare
Found yourself with the pigs eating dirt off the cobble
The spiritual revolution inside of a Tylenol bottle
[Verse 2]
Saw [?] in Union Square
He was chewing on his nail
Said you could come to [?] Street if you wanna meet John Cale
Said that you were tired, he said, "either way, you lose"
"There's an abandoned office over there where they tried to build a nuke"
"And The Village Voice was blaming Studio 54"
"For all the crazy artists buying all the paint from pearl store"
[Verse 3]
[?] was closed, so [?] got too drunk
Someone said you could come to mine if you were looking for some junk
The Prince of Cool told [?] to go back to LA
Recording blue notes in New Jersey, the [?] students won't get paid
There was a poem on the wall
He said it's just the same old shit
[Unfinished]
[Instrumental Outro]
