Lyrics
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
A BEAT BOOMIN' FROM A CAR JUST AROUND THE CORNER
ITS THUMPIN? BASS IS BANGIN ON THE INSIDE OF MY HEAD
BEADS OF WATER DRIPPIN' FROM MY CAN OF COCA-COLA
DRIPPIN' DOWN FROM MY HAND PUTTIN' OUT MY CIGARETTE
I'M BARELY HANGIN' ON BY THE STRING OF MY OWN EGO
AIN'T NOTHING GOING DOWN WHEN YOU BORED AND YOU ARE YOUNG
LOOK AT LITTLE MARY THERE, SHE'S SINGIN' FOR THE PEOPLE
SINGIN' FOR A FUTURE THAT WILL SURELY, TRULY COME
YOU'VE GOT TO GET, YOU'VE GOT TO GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER
YEAH A LOOK AROUND, THIS AIN'T JUST GOOD ENOUGH
YOU'LL LIVE YOUR LIFE, YOU LIVE IT FOR WORSE OR BETTER
IT'S ALL YOU'VE GOT
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
THE CLOUDS ABOVE SUBURBAN SKIES SHADOWS OUT THE HOUSES
YEAH THERE'S THE CAR THATS PUMPIN? OUT THAT HEAVY DISCO TUNE
HEY, HEY DADDY, TELL ME, WHERE'D YA GET THOSE FUNKY TROUSERS?
$20 FOR A PAIR ON 11TH AVENUE
I'M BARELY HANGIN ON TO THE WANTS OF MY DESIRE
I'M BARELY HANGIN ON BY THE STRING OF MY OWM SHOES
UNCONSCIOUSLY AS COMMON, LIVING HERE IN URBAN NOWHERE
FEELIN' JUST SO COMMON, THAT I'VE NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE
