[00:17.23]Skinny little brats 
[00:19.44]Walking down Avenue A 
[00:21.37]Dangling their cigarettes 
[00:23.45]Their Independence Day 
[00:25.46]Tears like filigrees 
[00:27.69]Wear them on their sleeves 
[00:29.71]Nobody's main squeeze 
[00:31.73]It's thirty-five degrees 
[02:26.02][00:33.71]Poetry of ordinary life 
[02:30.18][00:38.48]Is what I live for 
[02:33.58][00:41.36]They just wanna be seen 
[02:35.72][00:43.73]They just wanna be heard...said 
[02:54.47][02:38.05][00:46.00]My words are like Confetti 
[02:58.61][02:41.90][00:50.14]And you never pick them up 
[03:02.47][02:45.91][00:53.92]They fall onto the ground 
[03:05.73][02:49.29][00:57.49]I need someone to lift me up 
[01:09.37]So diaphanous, so ephemeral 
[01:13.48]And all those bad words 
[01:15.62]They never learned in school 
[01:17.63]Groovy like my mamma was 
[01:19.64]In her black turtle neck 
[01:21.72]She was so high strung 
[01:23.79]She was so low tech 
[01:25.58]Poetry and tattooed dreams 
[01:29.45]And fourteen caret nose rings 
[01:33.39]The children of elite 
[01:35.75]Are trying to be street saying 
[01:37.84]My words are like confetti 
[01:41.97]And you never pick them up 
[01:45.86]They fall onto the ground 
[01:49.13]I need someone to lift me up 
[01:54.38]My words are like confetti 
[01:58.47]And you never pick them up 
[02:02.33]They fall onto the ground 
[02:05.53]I need someone to lift me up
