Jody

歌詞

Jody, what you been doing? It's been a long, long time Since we went dancing in the schoolyard, With your breasts like bleeding limes Jody, are you still hanging with that latin? With rabbit fur inside his wheels? With his Gilbert Roland piece, And his glove department deals Uptown, we watched the debutantes skating Across the reservoir ice Dressed in tweed and leather flags . . . And you whispered six words twice Jody, look what time has done To people who live on the run Jody, look what time has done Jody, I spent years living at the movies I really hated you awhile I wrote so many incantations Lord, I had to keep a file . . . you said "Uptown . . ." and I said, "Downtown." Downtown the rooftops are wide I was sinking in the tar, I screamed, "This City is on my side" Jody, go to any window; Raise your eyes up to the sky . . . Is that our destiny of yesterday Or just a vault of lies? But jody, look what time has done To people who live on the run Jody, look what time has done Jody, all the lay-down promises They were just a trading of scars But I remember the wild nights; Hey, we changed mountains into stars Uptown, the buildings are syringes They're all just glass and dreams One thing about Manhattan, it's always Just what it seems But Jody, Remember the part And how we entered at the zoo That's when I told you that the cheetah Walked as fine as you But jody, look what time has done To people who live on the run Jody, look what time has done
