Julian Casablancas - Ludlow St. lyrics

rate me

Everything seems to go wrong when I stop drinking

Everything seemed to go my way last night

Everything seems so wrong to me this morning

I know things will be brighter later tonight

On Ludlow St.,

Try to down scarmen on Ludlow St.

Puerto Ricans are runnin' on Ludlow St.

Soon musicians will haunt it, on Ludlow St.

Where angels once haunted

And it's hard to just move along

While I surrendered my ego, you fed yours

All my fantasies died when you said yours

I have dangled my pride to forget yours

Will my mind be at ease when you get yours?

We'll find out soon enough

It started back in 1624

The Lenapes tribes would soon get forced from their home

Soon we'll all get pushed out now

As soon as I get sober

I remember why I drank it all away

On Ludlow St.

Cautious regrets, callin' me on the phone

My shoes they seem to be my only home

The only thing to last will be my bones

Oh, tonight you hear the animals next door to you moan

On Ludlow St., faces are changing on Ludlow St.

Yuppies invaded on Ludlow St.

Night-life is raging on Ludlow St.

History's fading, and it's hard to just move along

While I surrendered my ego, you fed yours

All my fantasies died when you said yours

I have dangled my pride to forget yours

Will my mind be at ease when you get yours?

We'll find out soon enough

While they defended their ego, you fed yours

All their fantasies died when you said yours

They have dangled their pride to forget yours

Will their souls be at ease when you get yours?

We'll find out soon enough

I'll find out soon enough
