They tell me New York City's cold this time of year With the way the Atlantic flows almost as cold as it gets here But that current's on the move to pursue a new career Led on by the scars in the atmosphere So back here in a tiny town we'll need more electricity 'Till the mains fill our brains with Kilgorean chemistry But even such distractions lose their potency When the ocean silently agrees It was had to keep her warm last night in some draughty Brooklyn bar I guess I'll pledge my loyalty to the heat of the passing cars
And I'll retain the warmth the winter can not recall Dispense it a clumsy "please" written on some digital wall Hopeful my 24 weeks among healthy animals Will still keep me in the thrall Of course, there's no resolve, the confusion's too severe But you used to kiss the lobe before whispering in my ear I think that that’s the trouble with seeing things my dear Nothing is ever clear And your views were surely accurate But I'm done with accuracy Because once I could see the future But the future couldn't see me And now I'm stuck between our teeth With the lies we couldn't tame But at least we keep our chins up as we spit back at the rain
