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