    Story Behind the Song
    inspired by grimy New York City, but really could be about any big city;
    the hardness of life under the steel and glass

    Lyrics
    in between conundrum stars,
    shoved in busses, subway cars,
    fresh arrivals from terre haute,
    flocks of sheep and billy goat
    cannot get around confusion,
    every manner of delusion ...

    lingering in a smoky bar
    down and dirty
    bandmates strumming air guitars,
    take demanding flights of fancy
    from the cloisters to delancey . . .

    the markets very tight now
    and oxygen is hard to find.
    if you want some mister you have to wait on line.
    tweedle dum and tweedle dee
    playing with their balls,
    policeman holding hand
    grenades sneaking down the halls.

    jimmie smokes crack and i don't care.
    urban reptiles everywhere
    clamor up and down the stairs
    reflecting on my shoes . . .
    while standing on a subway train,
    the gotham city blues.

    -copr 1999 by r. langston zark
