lyrics - studio apartment

sittin watchin tv in our favorite underware
blue electric shadows casting here and there and everywhere
that noisy wall unit kickin out tons of cold air
sleepin on the kitchen floor next to reupolstered chair

studio apartment
if you want dreams we got a
limited assortment
we got hot water and electricity to power anything
for hours while it rains on 7th avenue

(licks)spent my money in the bar
no car lost my metro pass
atm is out but my guitar
will make some money fast

movie house playing
flash gordon silent flicks
with a banjo boy
soundtrack jazz licks

iron door rusty hinges
peep hole who is it
in the back through a crack
smell the afrodisiac

blade of grass growing strong
concrete jungle home
in the sky birds fly
in a geodesic dome

studio apartment
if you want dreams we got a
limited assortment
we got hot water and electricity to power anything
for hours while it rains on 7th avenue (extra measure)

make a choice sheep goat
blue collar white coat
gotta be one cause you
can not be both (soft B7 chord)

closed down all around
city been crackin down
real life bein drowned
poverties a crime now

fire code whats that
run down theres a rat
powers out foods bad
will i be a new dad

pressing on the cieling
not impressed with what im feeling
running out of ways of dealing
as the sands of time are spilling on my

studio apartment
if you want dreams we got a
limited assortment
we got hot water and electricity to power anything
for hours while it rains on 7th avenue (extra measure)

kicked out hand to mouth
last dollar ran out
keep it positive cause you
have to live without a doubt

closed down all around
city been crackin down
real life bein drowned
poverties a crime now

fell asleep on the train
end of the line again
red hook black jack
pillow case back packS

dreamin of a paradise
hungry for a little slice
place that you can call your own
if you could just go back home

studio apartment
if you want dreams we got a
limited assortment
we got hot water and electricity to power anything
for hours while it rains on 7th avenue (extra measure)
