Give it up whatever holds you down
Rip it out although it breaks your skin
Paint it black then pull yourself out of the
whole [bad word] mess
Read the sign that [bad word] back soon
But turn your back and laugh about the stores
Grab your woes a silver [bad word]  and a red silk dress
 [bad word] 

People talk
You just keep on walking
They don't know how you feel
People talk
You just keep on walking
They don't know how you feel

Subway crowds and supermarket lights
Traffic fumes that slice into your lungs
Vacant stares from perfect strangers in the city heat
God is one that sounds like the [bad word] There's a plan and still we must behave
I suppose there's certain secrets
You just don't repeat
 [bad word]
