City In A Bottle

[Verse 1]

Well the cold has a hard time finding me

Unlike some folks I know

Yeah all the men down in Union Square

Are worried about the snow

[Bridge 1]

'Cause when your pockets fill with dollar bills your heart forgets to eat

It's a wicked thing, it owns this street

[Verse 2]

So fix your boots or take me home says quick Monique the freak

I need an easy dollar are you trick or are you treat

If she was six teeth younger and I had half a mind

You know I'd carry her away from that wicked thing outside

[Verse 3]

Oh well I saw a carried bundle

That had fingers eyes and toes

As a father of deception

I have never raised a soul

[Bridge 2]

It's a purchase capture second hand and cherished more than gold

It's a shelter from the wicked thing that wanders in the night

[Verse 4]

Oh yeah so fix your boots or take me home says quick Monique the freak

Oh yeah I need an easy dollar are you trick or are you treat

Oh if she was six teeth younger and I had half a mind

You know I'd carry her away from that wicked thing outside

[Outro]

The water on the dirty streets has all but turned to ice

To pave the road for wicked things that wander in the night
