Greene Street - 1983 Demo Lyrics by Jonathan Larson

The Jonathan Larson Project

2019

I found the sun
On a midwinter day
On a backstreet down in SoHo
There was snow on the ground
Instinct told me to get out and search for a day
Hey!
There goes a chic, chic baby on her way to a coup d'état
There goes a fella like me lookin' for his day
There goes a boy in his mama's arms
You can say what you can say
There goes a lover sittin' and writin' this song
I'm sittin' on Greene Street
And I don't mean money, honey
Greene Street
Watchin' the world waltz by
Greene Street
That's the one that's sunny, honey
Greene Street, Greene Street
Laughing the day away
There goes a man with a camera whose sunglasses shade his eyes
There goes a man that seems that he knows a star
There goes a tourist too scared to answer me
There goes a dancer too scared to answer me
An artist, who winked as she passed by
Greene Street
Don't mean money, honey
Greene Street
Watchin' the world waltz by
Greene Street
That's the one that's sunny, honey
Greene Street, Greene Street
Laughing the day away
All these people out in the street
Too bad that no one wants to meet
Everybody I see walks right by
Would someone, please
Someone, please
Look me in the eye? Look me in the eye?
Look me in the eye? Look me in the eye?
Look me in the eye? Look me in the eye?
Look me in the eye? Look me in the eye?
I'm sittin' on Greene Street
And I don't mean money, honey
Greene Street
Watchin' the day waltz by
Greene Street
That's the one that's sunny, honey
Greene Street, Greene Street
Laughing the day away
I'm sittin' on Greene Street
That's the one, not money, honey
Greene Street
Laughing the way waltz by
Greene Street
One that's sunny, honey
Greene Street, Greene Street
Laughing the day away
Greene Street, Greene Street
Laughing the day away
Greene Street, Greene Street
Laughing the day
I can't sing this song I'm laughing too hard
I love to laugh
