Go Live Your City Life

Go stop and start
At stop lights
Never noticing
They're green

Go walk along the sidewalks
Taking sides in arguments
Saying things that you don't mean

Go do a pirouette
Go take a class
Go raise your brain

See if the car parked outside
Is a man here to take you
Away from all your pain

Go pray in foreign churches
Find the medicine
That cures your sin

Go ride the elevator
To the lowest floor
It reaches

Go give homeless people advice
But keep hold of your spare change

Don't ever catch a sunset
Don't ever breathe fresh air
Don't ever stop to think
You stooped to running
Coming here

Go buy expensive pillows
Go hug them to your chest
Go spray perfume along your breast
And see if you can test
Your senses

Go live your city life
Go drown in all your noise
Go flirt and fuck and fantasize
Go meet your other boys

Go tell people your secrets
Close your eyes
Take a dare

Go live your city life
And see if anybody cares
