Shades Of Grey
If you start here late no one will know what you di
No the streets are straight it's the soul that's crooke
I've been treated fine I've been treated elegantl
But I'm not one for bathing in the waters of plent
East is East West is Wes
And Bowery is screaming while Delancey rest
Well I'm south of the skating but I'm north of the cas
I could sure use the money but I'm ashamed to as
The traffic has buried all of last nights rai
The words are all different but the accent is the sam
The sun is white and the moon is gra
And the river is black blue and gree
The young are young and the old are ol
And there are no shades of gray in betwee
There's at least ten different strains of smoke in the ai
And my prints are on them all to prove I was ther
And I love the curses but I'm not one for the trenche
And I do love the walking but thank god for the benche
it's hard to tell where green begins and the city gray stop
I guess the trees all bought their armor at second hand shop
My second had is working but the minute hand is broke agai
I know time will pass but I don't know whe
The sun is white and the moon is gra
And the river is black blue and gree
The young are young and the old are ol
And there are no shades of gray in betwee
And there are no shades of gray in betwee
I know the great ones have been here but where I cant tel
There's dreams here a plenty but they're being withhel
And I'm more impressed with the closed doors than the ones that are ope
The whole place tells time by a tower clock tha'ts broke
The pigeons are ravens and the gulls are vulture
And trash is art and cash is cultur
The sun is white and the moon is gra
And the river is black blue and gree
The young are young and the old are ol
And there are no shades of gray in betwee
There are no shades of gray in betwee
There are no shades of gray in between
