about

Recorded live in Washington, DC @ Velvet Lounge on a bill with Mary Christ & Music Band

lyrics

in the universe city
the kids are tough
you count their numbers on a finger
you either fight or you bluff

In the Universe City
the kids are right
but it takes five bands to lie down
for one to step in the light

cause in the cities heart
there lies a god
and i dont' know his name or
why the bill we're on seems wrong

in the universe city
the kids are real
they skip the bands on the back page.
for the ones they can steal

in the universe city
the kids been sold
on a dream like the rest of us
what matters most is the mold

cuz in the cities gut
there lies a slob
and he's still smiling
when they're serving him your heart

i'll take a walk
down by the bay
where arthur fiedler lives
thought we were smart
pusing bottles
underneath the docks

but in the universe city
i found my faith
dreaming short term is bound to get you let down
you only win if you play

cause in the cities heart
their lies a stone
and it ain't moving
until you tell it when in roam.
