    Story Behind the Song
    When I was 12 years old, I used to play git and piano in NYC at a club called the Hawaii Kai. My father was the music director and MC. After the 2 shows (per night)were done I would walk to the port athority bus terminal on 42nd st. to catch a bus home.This song is a story that I thought about when I saw all the hookers and drug addicts that used to hang out on 42nd st. I thought it was very sad to think that at one time they were just like me,an innocent child. When did that all change for them?

    Lyrics
    can you see,whats been going on
    all tose things that we talked about
    can I be so wrong
    well you cry when you dont get your way
    you powder your nose with your sexy clothes when your out to play.
    I can see your falling down
    when your falling to the ground
    It's such a trajedy
    on 42nd st.
    (can you see theres somthing wrong and can you see your falling down)
    I can see all those new priorities
    I thought I knew who you were and who you want to be
    dont cloes your eyes to who you used to be
    you take off your clothes for that spoon up your nose is it really free
    can you see whats been going on
    and what do you think about when you hear this song
    well you lie so you can get your way
    you stay up all night then you put up a fight when you sleep all day
