Lyrics
Spent my last bone on the Rolling Stone Inside that magazine I read about our new beauty queen Avenue A where the egg creams grow Great music makers nobody knows Singing to the back walls of empty bars Singing protest songs on subway cars Down stairs tuning their guitars Ten bucks a show from the tip jar and they go home and write more go home and write more go home and close the door Beauty queen doesn't want me The ladies on the upper east side always eye me I turn on the radio but I can't find me I'm downstairs tuning my guitar I am a needle buried in hay No one could find me any day I am covered in ten year plans, funny tattoos, California sand I am covered in sleepless nights, too many ideas, my rockstar brights on And two years of needing you Two years of trying you Two years of thinking you Were the best I could have The best minds of my generation Won't be seen on a TV station They're singing to the back walls of empty bars Singing protest songs on subway cars Downstairs tuning their guitars Ten bucks a show from the tip jar and they go home and write more go home and write more go home and close the door
