Lyrics Iggy Pop – Avenue B
Text:
Rapper standing on the corner
Wrappers flying in the wind
Waitress up from Alabama
Can’t believe the cold she’s in
On the verge of a divorce
And if I haven’t got a hassle
I’ll create my own, of course
Still I gotta live with my feelings
But I know about science too
And fame and death and money
And what they do to you
And I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
Tonight on Avenue B
I bought about a hundred candles
I’m burnin’ em both night and day
I’m sleepin’ when I should be eatin’
Cryin’ when I should be gay
My girlfriend’s warm and loves me
She’s knockin’ but she can’t get in
I’m a product of the paranoia
Of the age I’m in
And I am gonna need a miracle
I’m really gonna need a miracle
I’m really gonna need a miracle
Tonight on Avenue B
I see the students out my window
They’re walking in their student clothes
To make their understanding grow
But this much I understand
It’s hard to be an empty man
But since I gave `em every part of me
I ain’t free
And I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
Tonight on Avenue B
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
Tonight on Avenue B
