Half empty, half full
 [bad word] over
Homes of plenty, covers full
We studying over

Half empty, half full
 [bad word] over
Homes of plenty, covers full
We studying over

I WRITE YOU STORY
But it loses its thrill
And all of my witness
Keep turning up
Keep turning up dead

I PAINT YOU PICTURE
placid night [bad word] back to Chicago
City of
City of love
 [bad word] back to Chicago

I PAINT YOU PICTURE
But it never looks right
'Cause I fill in the shadows
And block out the
I block out the light

I SEND POSTCARD
It says "Pulaski at Night"
Greetings from Chicago
City of
City of love
 [bad word] back to Chicago
City of
City of love  [bad word] back to Chicago
