Lyrics
They moved the subway closer
fuck Ace and his two buck toaster
I live much closer now
It's easier to go downtown
and green is all I see
when I find you staring at me
big daddy bankrolls breakfast
living fat in his excess
so you sit on your stoop
and you neighbors all hang out in crews
I overheard you saying
problems at the subway station
I will not insult you
but I think you're quiite mistaken
You don't come much this way
while I take it every day
and so she left me waiting
but it seems so underrated
so you sip at the truth
watching fireworks on your roof
everybody knows it's all right here
everybody knows it's alright here
It's mostly different now
colors change the oldest ground
I get a lot of sun
I sit around so bluntly done
And so you ask me please
You explain your every need
and still she left me waiting
but she knows I like it here
and you flip at the news
watch another mess move on your tube
everybody knows it's all right here
everybody knows it's alright here
