The stars are shining so bright
|
Wait-that's just Manhattan's light
|
It's been 12 hours since I ate
|
I think I'm finally losing weight
|
|
Mixed up my armor with some knight
|
Walkin' home wearing his white
|
I know what you're gonna say
|
No one could love me this way
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
I'm bowlegged and starving, but
|
Walkin' home happy
|
Let this mark the moment
|
When I felt freedom ring
|
I've got my laptop for pleasure
|
And my guitar for pain
|
Love's a buried treasure
|
But I don't need love to feel this way
|
|
He said I could spend the night
|
I said thanks but that's alright
|
You can paint your number on my face
|
But I'm not into sleeping at someone else's place
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
|
When Brooklyn tossed a bone, it landed in my wishing well
|
Took the train for hours to this roach motel
|
Sometimes it's worth it, sometimes it's hot
|
Sometimes he loves me, sometimes he loves me not
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
