Taylor Street
I take the 5:19 to Taylor Street.
Chinese men are playing chess,
sitting on their park benches,
waiting for their knights to pass.
The king and queen have fallen on the grass.
What a lonely city, what a way to change my mind.
It's so hard to let you know.
Even harder if I said yes.
Think of how the days would pass.
The king and queen have fallen on their heads.
Chorus
Oh, I've got to get out of here,
got to break out of this skin I'm in.
Oh, I've got to rise over my heartache....Let me be.
You can bring me one more photograph,
the happy couple holding hands,
but this can't be your master plan.
I've got pictures of every man
from all the places I have ever been.
Chorus
Oh, I've got to get out of here,
got to break out of this skin I'm in.
Oh, I've got t6o rise over my heartache.
Oh, I've got to get out of here, got to break out of this skin I'm in...
Bridge
Crazy city, crazy life...won't change my mind...I'm going.
Chorus and out
