mini city heart attack

My backpack is full of paperbacks I am not remotely close to finished with yet

They'll still be here long after I'm dead

Strolling from one dusty apartment bookcase to the next

Debating amongst themselves whose owners' taste

They signified best

Just another day as a nervous wreck, another mini city heart attack

Just another day as a nervous wreck, another mini city heart attack

Stuck in Soho hell, what a plastic scene

If everyone's so hot, why is the makeup layered down like the Pleistocene -- any geologists here?

Man, forget about Williamsburg, it is the new Disney World, the museum in Virginia is more authentic

Although the French tourists in BK can pronounce Sartre convincingly like they've read him

Just another day as a nervous wreck, another mini city heart attack

Just another day as a nervous wreck, another mini city heart attack

Oh God here I go again, with the esoteric writing

Speak to the kids, music-lovin' twentysomethings, the demographics!

So says my mental publisher

Alienated teenagers, anything for a dollar

But here's the thing: even 'vernacular' is a five-dollar word -- come on, four quarters?

Just another day as a nervous wreck, another mini city heart attack
