City Is Taken

When moving from Kingston to King's County

I fell on city block in a snow fall scene

Represent the tide, how did I murder, murder, murder?

Then I role-played romantic histories

Of my Bohemia versus industry

Thought I was such a revolutionary

I thought city is taken, but not by me

City is taken, but not me

We're all jesters, yes, but for a cause

A spector on spectator's door

Left a hollow ring on rock 'n' roll, roll, roll

When you play up the hand of mystery

Of single mind against community

You think you're such a revolutionary

You think city is taken, but not by me

City is taken, but not me

Chase is not my friend, yet he follows me from every corner

My footsteps are worth more than my music

To be a muse, to use and be used

Now I'm amused at my naïveté

Just another pawn in the game

Just another one and the same

The gray-haired anointed prophet preached

To the garden of the gainly employed

Singing, "Buy this remaster, praise the past ever after"

Pack your bags and move to Detroit

Oh, pack your bags and move to Detroit

The gray-haired anointed prophet preached

To the garden of the gainly employed

Singing, "Buy this remaster, praise the past ever after"

Pack your bags and move to Detroit

Oh, pack your bags and move to Detroit
