Lyrics

I see that you’re doing discovery
Crawling around on the ceiling above me
I think this might stall my recovery
But I can’t help that this city, she loves me
This city, she loves me
I been straphanging now for most of my life
Why would you think I’m changing soon?
Your bus looks funny under these cold Broadway lights
But it’s still my favorite view
I see that you’re trying to bait me
Asking which bus I’ve been riding lately
I can’t control how long it takes me
And I can’t help that this city, she hates me
This city, she hates me
I been straphanging now for most of my life
Why would you think I’m changing soon?
Your bus looks funny under these cold Broadway lights
But it’s still my favorite view
I’ll ride this bus ‘til I can find a home
‘Til then, I won’t be alone
But I’m losing friends at every stop
And when the traffic slows down to a crawl
I won’t fret at all
I’ve learned this is the only route for me
And thankfully
I’ve got no other place to be
I been straphanging now for most of my life
Why would you think I’m changing soon?
Your bus looks funny under these cold Broadway lights
But it’s still my favorite view
