N Y C

 


The beggar on the corner
Had his hand out
Asking citizens for some change
As the bag lady's bag ripped
And her only possesions
Hit the concrete and rolled away
The cab driver laughed
As he sat at the light
Waiting for it to change
And elevators went up and down
All day long
Taking citizens from cage to cage
Down on the darkened subway platform
A mugger was getting shot                                                                              And the cop directing traffic above
Just got hit by a car
While out there on the road
Somewhere Brothers ride on
Dodging cagers all day long
Riding on into the night
