Brooklyn Baby

[Verse 1]
They say I'm too young to love you
I don't know what I need
They think I don't understand
The freedom land of the seventies
I think I'm too cool to know ya
You say I'm like the ice I freeze
I'm churning out novels like
Beat poetry on amphetamines

(I say, I say)
(I say, I say)

[Verse 2]
Well, my girlfriend's in a band
She plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed
She's got feathers in her hair
I get down to beat poetry
And my jazz collection's rare
I can play 'most anything
I'm a Brooklyn baby
I'm a Brooklyn baby

(I say, I say)
(I say, I say)
