Lexington

She don’t wanna go downtown
She’s got a date at the Cooper Hewitt
The worker bees cruise 5th
To the front steps of the MET while her blues sail down

To Lexington

High times at school
Learnin about 12th century structures
Gothic film slides roll
Rush to a class on the rooftop drawing chic, sustainable homes

On Lexington

Thought she had it all on the edge of 70th and Lex
All prim and proper, young, unabashedly dressed
Strange little tangents take a crack at her skull
So she left high tea to go downtown with thеm Essex street folk

She took a 6 line down
Prеtends she’s dueling reflections of train cars
A strangers face lights up, they got soft eyes with a bit of pride
But it lifts her out

Of Lexington

It lifts her out
Far out, of Lexington

She’s a downtown girl now
She’s a downtown girl now
And there’s just no turning back
