lyrics

Rain rattles down the gutters and drips off my fedora. I see silhouettes of happy people chowing down on dinner in every apartment window. But here I am, on the street, stomach empty as a bum’s bottle of rye. I can feel eyes on me as I walk, burning a hole in the back of my head. I turn and see her, a most beautiful creature. But I can’t be distracted by dames right now. “Beat it, toots,” I say, and the huge rat scurries off into a storm drain.

I turn down a side street towards my destination, out of the cold comfort of the street lights. My phone chimes, “You have arrived”, but I’m flummoxed as a polar bear in Hawaii. I see two storefronts with two nearly identical neon signs, both spelling out the words: “Hot Meat.” One is adorned with illustrations of a juicy burger, steamy fries, and a cold milkshake. The other depicts a slender pair of legs with stilettos and fishnet stockings. I’m a tough man to fool, and yet, I’m suddenly unsure of my next move…
