Spacehog - 2nd Avenue lyrics

rate me

(Royston Langdon and N. Chassler)

Flute by Michael Quingheenan

Additional vocals by Valerie Wilsion

*2nd Avenue in East Village, NY was once the home for the four band members, before "hitting it big" in the music world. To this day, they are still amazed at how far they've come, and take a look back in this song.*

She came from money

He called her honey

Her family makes wine

He's robbing her blind

When I see her and you on 2nd Avenue

Well, it makes me want to spew

So I ran away from you

I want to live on 2nd Avenue

I want her love on 2nd Avenue

Don't let her buy you 2nd Avenue

It's my street too

Now that you are married

Living on the Isle of Capri

You eat paté all day

Go for a swim in the bay

Still can't stand to see you in a magazine

With your blue blood clan

And all your fans

I want to live on 2nd Avenue

I want her love on 2nd Avenue

Don't let her buy you 2nd Avenue

It's my street too

What a girl to do that

2nd Avenue

It's my only road, my 2nd Avenue

I want to live on 2nd Avenue

I want her love on 2nd Avenue

I want to run on 2nd Avenue

I want to spew on 2nd Avenue

I want to walk on 2nd Avenue

I want her child on 2nd Avenue

Don't let her buy you 2nd Avenue

It's my street too
