Olehole - 40 43 74 00 lyrics

40 43 74 00 Fourth of july Mid afternoon Sun splattered and thirsting In a 24 karat dive bar Off of bedford ave The jagged haired starved artists Buying up their mixed drinks And the gawking young intellectuals With gossip to spare (and presentations everywhere) 40 43 74 00 It's often said that new york city Is the center of the world It is a series of islands Doused taught And knit grey Where the self can seep Willing and high Into the teeming ma** With gossip to spare And presentations everywhere Everyone is someone here That someone vice versa Economy is language here And fluency is king 40 43 74 00 It is often said that new york city Is the center of the world A worm in the apple A sewer to the sea
