A cheap, old, brown pigeon, [G] a kung fu and a kung pop
[Ab] Look at [Am] the weekend we're losing, [G] that reactive spark
[Em] Even in the champagne, or down in the meat rack
Long [Am] time I feel cold, [G] send the Cinderella shoe back
[Em] Along the length of the wire, a heart attack on the line
[Am] I can't hear a thing, [G] can't get no number in my [Em] head
Now I must get in touch, [G] if the night is so good
[Am] Someone out there in the [Em] light, gonna need [G] a star or a turn
[Bb] Us heroes gonna fix that, [C] somebody saving their breath
[Am] Up on those walkways tonight, [G] or a glue bag there
[Bb] This is Queens lickin' unison, [C] some days it's a solo
I found the tears in the [G] heights, before that 15th [Em] floor scroll
It's immediately obvious, [G] any police style [Am] kill
Would have left this [A] club, made the [Em] forest a melt
This practice relates, [Bm] as the guy with the broom
[Em] Sees you and the [G] bottles, right out of the room
[Bb] And heroes fix that, [Am] ooh, it did save their breath
Up on those walkways [G] tonight, or that cool glue bag [Bb] there
This is Queens lickin' unison, [Am] some days it's a solo
I found those tears in the [G] heights, before that 15th [Am] floor scroll
[B] Now I'm washing a factory, [G] confessing a towel house
[Am] But I don't need to [Em] bleed, anybody's a strike out
Today my [B] grandfather, he sent [G] a note from the jail
[Am] Said you'll get a [A] kid, but don't get chained to the rail
[Em] Between the cold and the freezing, [A] comfort and the car [Am] park
Good that we can't be losing, [G] that romantic spot
[Em] Even in the shipping, [G] or down in the meat [C] rack
Long time I feel [A] cold, [G] send Cinderella's shoe back
[Bb] [C]
[Em] [G]
