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