about

Did someone say Lou Reed rip-off?

lyrics

Suki likes to go out dancing
Some dumbstruck hip-shake rock and roll
She gets her fix from some Long Island sailor
Moved on Vasaline, stuck some place in the now and in-between

She spat in the face of the Virgin Mary
And I spilt blood on sanitised Manhattan streets
And I guess some hearts got broken that New Years'
But a boy can still dream
Right?

Don't be a fool

Stay gold Ponyboy
I love you still

Suki's got some gutter-mouth god-like man now
I think he works on the Lower East Side
I thought I saw her with some Puerto Ricans on the subway Friday night
I guess this city loves me back

When I first came to New York
I was bathed in the glow of your tenement love
And though Lady Liberty is hunched like a beggar
And though your core is rotten
You still taste so sweet

Don't be a fool

Stay gold Ponyboy
I love you still
