I was standing quite alone in a crowded disco
When a man I did not know showed me the door and
Told me I had to go
That kind of humiliation never happens on a farm that's why
City livin' does the physche such harm
Fire escapes don't work until there's a fire
You gotta sleep on the floor live in the mud there's no need to go higher
Once you taste a brick you won't want more
Saving sanity is no trick when you're livin' outdoors
Well it did not take me long to realize my mistake
When garbage trucks messed up my dreams I knew my dreams were fake
Don't know how people gonna live like this
Pigeons might enjoy it but I can't live in this mess and I said
Fire escapes don't work until there's a fire
You gotta sleep on the floor live in the mud there's no need to go higher
Once you taste a brick you can't chew and talk
Saving sanity is a trick when you're livin' in a room the size of a shoe box
So finally all the wires and plastic got to me
Ideas and realizations were passing right through me
I did not take a train a plane or bus with wings
Man wasn't meant to fly besides walking does the same thing
It gets me outta here
Fire escapes don't work until there's a fire
You gotta sleep on the floor live in the mud there's no need to go higher
Once you taste a brick you won't want more
Saving sanity is a trick when you're livin' on someone else's floor
Hi wassup how you doin' it's good to see ya what's your name again
I can't remember times up I gotta go
