I'm taking the side streets
  Crusing down the alleyways
  Feeling the cool breeze
  Across my face
  I'm losing to find
  And I'm breaking to fix
  Cause I'm not fit
  To go on like this
  Music in my head
  The rhythm keeps me fed
  These sounds surround me
  In high frequencies
  There's no place like home
  There's no place like home
  Stone alone
  In the city of bastard roots
    When I'm about to go crazy
  Cause I'm still living here
  I just get my friends together
  And we dance,dance,dance
  Cause this is the state of the world
  This city tells me what it's like to live
    Hey bike messenger
  What's your name?
  Have you got the time
  To talk to me?
  Tell you what
  We'll sit on this here stoop
  And talk all about you
  We'll just keep sitting here
  Til you roll on through
    Serico he's still around
  Screwed up police ya might get found
  City crime's for city cops
  You've got to know
  The streets you rock
  The subway tells the story here
  This is the place to disappear
    I live in my open mind
  And I'll die in my open mind
