Optimist
Waiting but I don't mind I'm all bus stops and heat
I'm neon in your daylight I'm the optimist of thirtieth street
How it is is how it ought to be
I got anything but moneyed esteem
Drinks on Conde nast
I'm the optimist of thirtieth street
How it is is how it ought to be
I spy Vivian girls on the up upper east
There's no reason to be upset
There's no reason to not expect
There's no room for emptiness
No tea or sympathy
There's no room for emptiness
On a never empty street
I'm neon in your daylight I'm the optimist of thirtieth street
How it is is how it ought to be
I got anything but moneyed esteem
Drinks on Conde nast
I'm the optimist of thirtieth street
How it is is how it ought to be
I spy Vivian girls on the up upper east
There's no reason to be upset
There's no reason to not expect
There's no room for emptiness
No tea or sympathy
There's no room for emptiness
On a never empty street
