OUTSIDE its a bright night Theres an opera at Lincoln Center Movie stars arrive by limousine The klieg lights shoot up over the skyline of Manhattan But the lights are out on the mean streets A small kid stands by the Lincoln Tunnel Hes selling plastic roses for a buck The traffics backed up to 39th Street The TV whores are calling the cops out for a suck Meanwhile back at the Wilshire Pedro sits there dreaming Hes found a book on Magic in a garbage can He looks at the pictures And stares up at the cracked ceiling At the count of 3, he says, I hope I can disappear And fly, fly away R.I.P. Lou Reed Dirty Boulevard from New York (1989)
