25 - Anne E. DeChant ©2004 (explicit)
I was driving down 25 saw some people standing outside
The Renaissance Hotel
Around about the Hard Rock Cafe flowers dressing up the place
Men dressed up like nice valets for the pretty little people in a pretty place
Went a little further down 25 saw some guy standing outside
Saw him on the news late last night
Sitting outside his cardboard box
Looked like somebody had knocked it down
It occurred to me
Every town’s a nice town
When you’re a rich mother fucker
Every town looks the same
When you ain’t got a penny in you pocket
Days go by down 25
Days go by down 25
Drive across 90 to Chicago a city I begun to know
I been there with the band
Magnificent Mile magnificent site you might see some Frank Lloyd Wright
You can feel the city’s might on Lakeshore Drive
But drop back an exit on 94 you’ll get nothing that you bargained for
Candy dimes and liquor stores welfare lines
Talk to the mamma who’s got her 5
When’s the last time Oprah dropped by
It occurred to me
Every town’s a nice town
When you’re a rich mother fucker
Every town looks the same
When you ain’t got a penny in you pocket
Days go by down 25
Days go by down 25
I took a little drive by the CYC to see if there was room for me
Wouldn’t you know there happened to be now I live there
But it remains crystal clear I am just a stranger here
I ain’t got no yacht and I like cheap beer
Yea it remains clear to me I got everything I need
And life mostly is the way we see
Every town’s a nice town
When you’re a rich mother fucker
Every town looks the same
When you ain’t got a penny in you pocket
Days go by down 25
Days go by down 25
