Gotham
And I squandered my money
Like I squandered my heart
On this broken-down city
That turns tricks after dark
And I squandered my fortune
Like I squandered my time
I sold my soul to the devil
But the devil was you
So I'm burning my bridges
So I can finally be free
They say no man is an island
But this island's been
A dead-beat man to me
And you've been the world to me
But I've been just a grain of sand to you
In an hour glass
And oh the hours go by so fast
Another hundred people got off that train
And one of them will soon replace me
Pavement has no memory
For the footprints of a girl like me
And you let the world
Roll off of you
Like a cantaloupe
Or honeydew
Honey don't misinterpret my meaning
You may have style but I've got the feeling
And I squandered my money
Like I squandered my heart
On this broken-down city
That turns tricks after dark
And I squandered my fortune
Like I squandered my time
I sold my soul to the devil
But the devil was you
So I'm burning my bridges
So I can finally be free
They say no man is an island
But this island's been
A dead-beat man to me
And I squandered my money
Like I squandered my heart
On this broken-down city
That turns tricks after dark
And I squandered my fortune
Like I squandered my time
I sold my soul to the devil
Like I squandered my heart
On this broken-down city
That turns tricks after dark
And I squandered my fortune
Like I squandered my time
I sold my soul to the devil
But the devil was you
So I'm burning my bridges
So I can finally be free
They say no man is an island
But this island's been
A dead-beat man to me
And you've been the world to me
But I've been just a grain of sand to you
In an hour glass
And oh the hours go by so fast
Another hundred people got off that train
And one of them will soon replace me
Pavement has no memory
For the footprints of a girl like me
And you let the world
Roll off of you
Like a cantaloupe
Or honeydew
Honey don't misinterpret my meaning
You may have style but I've got the feeling
And I squandered my money
Like I squandered my heart
On this broken-down city
That turns tricks after dark
And I squandered my fortune
Like I squandered my time
I sold my soul to the devil
But the devil was you
So I'm burning my bridges
So I can finally be free
They say no man is an island
But this island's been
A dead-beat man to me
And I squandered my money
Like I squandered my heart
On this broken-down city
That turns tricks after dark
And I squandered my fortune
Like I squandered my time
I sold my soul to the devil
