Jeff Buckley - Back In N.Y.C lyrics

I see faces and traces of home
Back in New York City
So you think I'm a tough kid
Is that what you heard?
Well, I like to see some action
And it gets into my blood
Well, they let me out of Pontiac
When I was just seventeen
I had to get it out of me
If you know what I mean, what I mean

Aaah, they say I must be crazy
'Cause I don't care who I hit, who I hit
'Cause I know it's me that's hitting out
And I'm not full of shit down by my bottle
Filled up high with gasoline
You can tell by the night
Fires where Rael has been, has been

As I cuddled the porcupine
He said I had none to blame but me
Held my heart, deep in hell, time
To shave, shave it off, it off

No time for romantic escape when your
Fluffy heart is ready for rape
No! No time for romantic escape when your
Fluffy heart is ready for rape

Off we go off we go
Off we go

You're sitting in your comfort
You don't believe I'm real
Well, you cannot buy protection from
The way that I feel
Your progressive hypocrites hand
Out their trash
It was mine in the first place
So I'll burn it to ash

When I've taken all the strongest meats
And laid them down in coloured sheets
Laid them down in coloured sheets
Who needs illusion of love and affection
When you're out walking in the streets
Your mainline connection connection

As I cuddled the porcupine he said I
Had none to blame but me
Held my heart deep in hell time
To shave, shave it off, it off

No time for romantic escape when your
Fluffy heart is ready for rape
No! No time for romantic escape when your
Fluffy heart is ready for rape
No! No time for romantic escape when your
Fluffy heart is ready for rape

No time
