Bushwick Lyrics

I wish someone would throw me a bone

I wish someone would show me how to get home

I had it too good from the start, then

Someone's gonna have to remind me again



I've got a pocket full of money

And I've gotta get home

It'll pay for a third of the cab ride along

And so I hailed a cab

And then I hear the tone

Of a train arriving on a platform that's close



I've been walking

I've been walking a lot

I've been walking through the snow

I lost feeling in my big left toe

I haven't been sleeping

Haven't slept much at all

And next time I slip I'm falling into a deep dark

Oh my god!

Where am I now?

Deeper through my teeth through my throat to my chest



I've got a pocket full of money

And I've gotta get home

It'll pay for a third of the cab ride along

And so I hailed a cab

And then I hear the tone

Of a train arriving on a platform that's close

So I run to the platform

But the train is leaving

As I catch my breath, I can't help believing

That I don't belong here

Cause the people they stare

And I start to freak out and I head for the stair

Now I'm waving my hands

In the middle of the road

And the cars won't stop

No, they won't even slow

And I am slipping on the sidewalk

Going for the high top



Freeze!

It's minus degrees

And it's creeping right through me from my ankles into my knees

Please!

I gotta go now

It's moving right through me from my belly into my brow

Wow!

This is not what you want, now

Soon enough baby, my body's gonna shut

Downtown

Uptown

Riding the train

It'll be 4am since I got off the plane



I wish everyone would remind me

Everything I've done is behind me

I had it too good from the start

Somethin's gonna have to remind me again
