Verse
F# C#
I need inspiration, I'm so disconnected
D#m B
I look to the streets, but they're so disinfected
F# C#
I wish that I came from an edgier place
D#m B
With taxis and transients up in my face
D#m A#m
Where you write what you know and you know what you write
B C#
Will be hailed as the second coming
F# C#
There's a buzz on the streets where you grew up homeless
D#m
And begging for change
B
Well, I'm begging for change
[Chorus]
B F#
Cause we're hung up on crosses and obeying bosses
B F#
And there's no inspiration, just appreciation for
B D#m
Seventy and sunny and one for the money
B C# B C# F#
And two for the show on my lily white way
[Verse 2]
F# C#
There lives a black man, the seal has been broken
D#m B
And they marvel at how he's so very well spoken
F# C#
He must be a doctor or something productive
D#m B
His body let go, but his color seductive
D#m A#m
And all of the women, he's touching their lives
B C#
While they're safe at home touching themselves
F# C#
And the men, they just love that there's something, anything
D#m B
Happening at all, behind bedroom walls
[Chorus]
B F#
Cause we're hung up on crosses and obeying bosses
B F#
And there's no inspiration, just appreciation for
B D#m
Seventy and sunny and one for the money
B C# B C# F#
And two for the show on my lily white way
[Verse 3]
F# C#
There's the sixties throwback who misses the Dead
D#m B
She's a liberal at heart but conservative in bed
F# C#
And she held out on Starbucks as long as she could
D#m B
But the mom and pop store in our neighborhood
D#m A#m
Well, the workers all look down their noses at her
B C#
She'll go broke trying to please them with tips
F# C#
So she gets to the corporate run coffee shop early
D#m
Where the smell of it hits
B
Before it reaches her lips
[Chorus]
B F#
She's bearing the crosses of neighborhood losses
B F#
And the uninspired and semi-retired
B D#m
She's seventy and sunny, but it's one for the money
B C# B C# F#
And two for the show on her lily white way
[Instrumental]
B F# x4
[Chorus]
B F#
We're hung up on crosses and old Pagan bosses
B F#
And there's no inspiration, just appreciation for
B D#m
Seventy and sunny and one for the money
B C# B C# F#
And two for the show on my lily white way
[Verse 4]
F# C#m
A little destruction makes way for construction
D#m B
The city expansion holds traffic for ransom
F#m C#m
And brand new brick buildings, of those I am certain
D#m B
Will leave our lives so much more sterile than urban
D#m A#m
And welcome the progress or be overrun
B C#
Every third house a pool, every second a gun
F# C#
And on Saturday evenings the doors open wide
D#m
It's a neighborhood waltz
B
That's the neighborhood pride
[Chorus]
B F#
And dresses disheveled from dances with devils
B F#
Once hung up on crosses, now flipping off their bosses
B D#m
And everything is funny and it's one for the money
B C# B C# F#
And two for the show on their lily white way
B D#m
One night of living is Sunday forgiven
B C# B C# F#
All for the show on our lily white way
[Outro]
F# C#m
I need inspiration, I'm so disconnected
D#m B
I look to the streets, but they're so disinfected
