Prefer You Were A Girl
The rain slaps her umbrella like a parental reprimand
How many times can she be warned
The puddles dance in the darkness like lights around a Christmas tree
Flickering dizzying decorating suffocating the dying tree
For all of its glitz and glamour
Times Square neon lights
Lite Broadway clamour
There is nothing New York couldn't offer
Company of strangers from birth to coffin
She'd prefer you were a girl
But she's lonely and it's late
And yesterday she was lonely just the same
In all of New York she can't find a bar or cafe
In all of her writings she can't find a way to say
She'd prefer you were a girl
But she's lonely and it's late
She mentions many things one time only and never again
And if you ask she'll say she's in pain
But she can't name the art of the torture
A reflection in a window shop
Says she's cold without and within
It seems reflections and shadows
Lately speak more clearly
She'd prefer you were a girl
But she's lonely and it's late
And yesterday she was lonely just the same
In all of New York she can't find a bar or cafe
In all of her writings she can't find a way to say
She'd prefer you were a girl
But she's lonely and it's late
She never did really choose this life
She's not sure if this world is her sort of place
She's not sure if her parents had asked
On that fateful night of conception
She would not have asked them
To stop the action
She'd prefer you were a girl
But she's lonely and it's late
And yesterday she was lonely just the same
In all of New York she can't find a bar or cafe
In all of her writings she can't find a way to say
She'd prefer you were a girl
But she's lonely and it's late
