Mayor of the Lower Eastside

You still love rock 'n' roll
Half of these people here would follow you home
'Cause you got the light
Out on Avenue A
Taxis are honking as the street people fight
In the middle of the map

You're the Mayor of the Lower Eastside
I heard them saying
You, keep New York City alive

Some people never get to leave
The city is heaven here just shy of defeat
Where the freaky people meet
You got to remember how to breathe
Even as days only seem to repeat
Along with every street

You're the Mayor of the Lower Eastside
I heard them saying
You, keep New York City alive

You're the Mayor of the Lower Eastside
I heard them saying
You, keep New York City alive
