I'm standing on the downtown 4 train platform
And you're across going uptown back home
I don't know where you were or why
Quite frankly I don't care
I have to get to work
I'll deal with it later
I hate the downtown 4
From 86th & lex
Packed liked sardines
On our way to work always stressed
Most likely the financial district
Or maybe grand central
Either way
You're going downtown because you have to
I much prefer uptown
It didn't always be like that
But I'd much rather be on the fire escape with a book looking at Central Park
Than downtown looking for girls whose only personality trait is "art"
And you'll probably fuck her in the back of the bar
And her and her and her
And some more before
But I don't care anymore
I'll deal with it later
I have to get to work
I'd kill you
But I need you off my lease first
I know you're a leech
But I'm only 18
Going downtown on the 4 train
To Wall Street
Because I have to
Because I have to pay our rent
So you can keep going downtown
To find girls whose only personality trait is art
To fuck them in the back of bars
Only to return home to peacefully sleep
While I'm going downtown on the 4 train
To Wall Street
