Butterscotch Stanley - I Hate New York

It doesn't feel like I thought it would
But I suppose, it never really does
It doesn't look like that thing on your shirt
But I guess that's cuz I never really got it
You don't smell like you did that night
Then again, Iʼve been up boozing and lying
It doesnʼt hold up like it did in October
Maybe if I try again
Iʼll get a little closer
I hate New York You turn good people away
Itʼs tough to be in control
On any given day
How to keep my standards high
Without submitting to sacrifice
How to function like a normal guy?
Maybe if I keep at it
Maybe if I accept it
Maybe if I lose track it
Might let me let it go Honey
I know you know
Iʼm a decent guy
I donʼt ask for much
Just the normal stuff
Iʼm just not that tough
I lose with the bad luck and the run-amucks
And the flying fucks
And the sitting ducks
Cuz I donʼt wanna lose it all for a 401 or an investment plan
Or 15 lousy hours a week at a non-union public library
Honey, I know you know
