Lyrics:
one day
At the newsboy on Broadway
He was the same man inside
He had just come a long way
He told me all this so I
Could tell them all someday why
It's
and gone
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News
Don't try to make me change my mind with facts
To hell with the graduated income tax
How do I know? I
The walk's by faith
The lone wolf dies
How am I gonna follow you
With blue man ears
And snow blind eyes?
Music by Peter Furler / Lyrics by Steve Taylor
I know the local newsboy and he
Stutters all the time
It's you and me and the devil on the screen
Looking for a normal life
There's a family
silhouette
You got your own little bling that's phat
A man like me got a thing for a girl
Who's independent but we ten out of ten and my digits in yo hand girl
Out in the square, a man in a raincoat
Standing there
We met by the land where the newsboy cries
He stole my heart with his laughing eyes
We smiled
the smoke
I can clearly see the field as I'm checking my goals
His righteousness it got me begging for more
Sipping living water man them blessings 'll Flow
Catch a taxi to the fountainhead
Blinking neon penny arcade
A young Caruso on the fire escape
Painted face ladies on parade
The newsboy
the basement where uncles were fighting
It hadda be howled on the streets by newsboys to bus conductors
It hadda be foghorned into New York harbor
It hadda
a newsboy 'til he was eighty four
What a slimy old bastard he was
Man don't you think I know she hates me
Man don't you think I know that she's no good
If
Holy terror gonna make you pay your dues
Don't you tell me that you'll
Think about it later
Don't you tell me you're
A truly righteous man
Don't you
He's the man who stands beside me
Like a soldier in a storm
That has weathered fields of sorrow
Yet his honor's never torn
Steadfast with pure
alike in the make of the mind
It is as if in a human dignity
Two parallels become one, a perspective
Of which
Men are part both in the inch and in
don't ever be mistaken
You're not on my level can we come to an agreement
Errors make flaws in a cycle repeated
Conditioned by law, got a few of them
turned out a bit askew
I yelled out to God make me
Defective so I could be fixed up by You
Oh, You
Yes, You
You know who you are,
You
A white dove landed
Late in the evening out in the square
A man in a raincoat standing there
We met by the lamp where the newsboy cried
He stole my heart with his
laws they create and condone
I'll do what you did before me
I'll follow close your lead
I'll make excuses for you
And stumble till I bleed
My
day
The taverns open, the sun goes down, the neon signs make a grand display
In our town, murders, happen everyday
There are whores walking the streets
Late in the evening, out on the square
A man in a raincoat, standing there.
We met by the lamp where the newsboy cried.
He stole my heart with his
Her granddad was a newsboy 'til he was eighty-four
What a slimy old bastard he was
Man, don't you think I know she hates me?
Man, don't you think I know
will you join me?
[pause]
You make me sad. So be it. Come, Patsy.
BLACK KNIGHT: None shall pass.
ARTHUR: What?
BLACK KNIGHT: None shall pass.
No we must see him.
Mandy: Go and praise someone else's brat, go on.
Wise Man 2: We were led by a star.
Mandy: Led by a bottle, more
make a run, it's a big money deal
Gankers got the fake but you can get the real from the
Dope man, dope man (Yeah, that's me)
Dope man, dope man
make a run, it's a big money deal
Gankers got the fake but you can get the real from the
Dope man, dope man (Yeah, that's me)
Dope man, dope man
