Naked City (Love to See U Shine)
Thursday came, I was tired of the fire engines
Tired of the taxi cabs, tired of the elevators
Tired of the doorman smiling when I know he wants to
Kick off his shoes and jump around like a fire cracker
From the sidewalk, train's about to pass
It smells like hot, open, steaming ass
I gotta get out, gotta get the hell out
I gotta get out, get the hell out
Ran through the streets, threw off my clothes
Onto the ground, laughed as we danced around
One with the city, drank from the fountains
Swam through the pavement
Ooh, nice to see you shine again
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend
I built a campfire in my 14309
West 17th Street apartment complex
Marshmallows roasted by a candlestick
Quick, get the water, it's gettin' out of hand, yo
Little glowing constellations
On my ceiling, everywhere
House plants covering
Our naked butts are bare
Grab the kitten
'Cuz the critters getting bored
I'm gonna pick a big fat booger for the Lord
Ran through the streets, threw off my clothes
Onto the ground, laughed as we danced around
One with the city, drank from the fountains
Swam through the pavement, suddenly I looked around
Ooh, nice to see you shine again
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
Ran through the streets, threw off my clothes
Onto the ground, laughed as we danced around
One with the city, drank from the fountains
Swam through the pavement, suddenly I looked around
Ooh, nice to see you shine again
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend (it's good to know you've got a friend)
Ooh, nice to see you shine again (shine again)
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
Tired of the taxi cabs, tired of the elevators
Tired of the doorman smiling when I know he wants to
Kick off his shoes and jump around like a fire cracker
From the sidewalk, train's about to pass
It smells like hot, open, steaming ass
I gotta get out, gotta get the hell out
I gotta get out, get the hell out
Ran through the streets, threw off my clothes
Onto the ground, laughed as we danced around
One with the city, drank from the fountains
Swam through the pavement
Ooh, nice to see you shine again
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend
I built a campfire in my 14309

Quick, get the water, it's gettin' out of hand, yo

Ooh, nice to see you shine again
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend (it's good to know you've got a friend)
Ooh, nice to see you shine again (shine again)
Ohh-ah-ah, good to know you've got a friend
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah-ahh-ah)
