Lyrics
Map Of the City
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She had a face like a cook
I'd seen in the kitchen of the Anchor Hotel
(?) city Virgin
She's friendly and you know her well
A thousand-odd broken stallions
Still very quick on the beat
Full-size the buffet begs before them All you can eat
I'm drawing up a plan for the city
Filled with ten thousand crooked stairs
Some lead up to heaven
Some look through you
Like you're not even there
Could it be that I'll see her
When I cut across the park
Walking along with her hound
When I look at myself in the shower
I wonder if she'll see what I see
And will she like what she has found
I rolled out from under the engine
And I saw her standing there
I knew right then that I could love her forever
Even when her breasts are rotted with cancer
I wonder where she went when she said go
A sailor has to masturbate
Until the ship lands
A lot of things happen out on the open sea
I'm gonna sell Arizona to Japan
I'm drawing up a plan for the city
Filled with ten thousand crooked stairs
Some lead up to heaven
Some look through you
Like you're not even there
