Hustle Roses - 85 Blocks lyrics

85 blocks on the rocks
Taking my time watch it unwind
Used to be black wish Apollo was back
James Brown's looking down at
The Harlem hipsters cigarettes butts
Ten tow trucks japs in gold
Watch it unfold jogging bankers
Capitalist wankers sweating bullets of green
Through strawberry fields

I'm not taking a cab not taking a subway
When I leave the bar
I'd rather gum on my shoe
I'm walking my shame off so I gotta walk far

New York means hitting the skids
I love this holy misfit
Here's where the weirdos unite
Trying to revive the good inside
New York means hitting the skids
I love this holy misfit
Here's where the weirdos unite
Trying to revive the good inside

85 blocks wearing striped socks
Broadway hags fake handbags
Koreatown cobblestone grounds
Cops eat donuts under the rainbow
The crust punks' bailed
And left us with poseurs giving hobos a dime
Stop for gin and lime children of rockstars
With zipper doc martens
They're paying the bills
High on mom and dad's pills

I'm not taking a cab not taking a subway
When I leave the bar
I'd rather gum on my shoe
I'm walking my shame off so I gotta walk far

New York means hitting the skids
I love this holy misfit
Here's where the weirdos unite
Trying to revive the good inside

85 blocks don't look at my watch
The suns coming up over ground zero
Seaport seagulls they'll pick at my bones
85 blocks just to get to the water
85 blocks just to get to the water
85 blocks 85 blocks

New York means hitting the skids
I love this holy misfit
Here's where the weirdos unite
Trying to revive the good inside
New York means hitting the skids
I love this holy misfit
Here's where the weirdos unit
Trying to revive the good inside
