Lyrics by Dave Gaynor

LYRICS
Old Davey was an asshole
Lived on Third Street
Used pucks rocks and Ubers
He couldn't keep a beat
He mugged a bum on Seventh
Just to get his kicks
Now he's doing five in Rikers
Where he really gets his fix
Well Billy was a tough guy
From the other side of town
He thought he ruled the neighborhood
He even wore a crown
He picked up on his lady
Tried to make his own
Now he's on a MISSING poster
Sinking like a stone

Then outward turn an optic tube
From some high lonely hill,
That we may glance at cosmic nooks
And marvels rich, until
The morning glow conceals those realms
Where precious things distill,
Far-forth beyond the utmost reach
Of human hope and will.
