Queen Of The Surface Streets Lyrics

Well, this is one place where your gods can't dwell
It's like walking in to the mouth of hell
Sweating our dignities out on the subway
At the beginning of another long, long day

As for my mortal remains, I couldn't care
'Cause when the day is done, she'll be waiting here
That's when I love the accommodations
Here in a urine smelling transit station

I'll move these rocks for you my love
I will tear them up out of the earth
And I will bend my spine
Till it's quitting time
'Cause I know what your time is worth

And I'll give my days to the Neanderthals
With the classic rock and the wrecking ball
I'll go swimming in the wet concrete
And I'll cast my pearls at the unpaved streets

I don't mind the mental atrophy
'Cause when the lids come down, you're all I see
You're like a lovely hallucination
You get me through my current occupation

I'll move these rocks for you my love
I will tear them up out of the earth
And I will bend my spine
Till it's quitting time
'Cause I know what your time is worth

See I'm towering above mortal men
I'll emerge from the darkness and there you stand
You're the queen of all the surface streets
I'm a wiener boy, that you're here to meet

I don't need the money, I couldn't care
'Cause everything I want is standing right here
I would live on the street in a cardboard shack
Just the worship the feet and the curve of your back

You'll be my only preoccupation
On a permanent vacation

Now I will move the rocks for you my love
I will tear them up out of the earth
And I will bend my spine
Till it's quitting time
'Cause I know what your love is worth

What your love is worth
What your love is worth
