Brooklyn Jesse Malin

[Verse 1]
The last car on the line
I guess you're back doing time
The ghost of Christmas past
Left Walt Whitman in the trash

[Chorus]
And you started out with nothing but lonely days
You used to like the sad songs of doom and gloom
You started out with nothing but throwaways
You couldn't live with me so you moved
To Brooklyn
Brooklyn

[Verse 2]
Artificial desserts
Some have cars, some have kids
Hit the Pathmark after work
Some never been past the bridge

[Chorus]
And you started out with nothing but lonely days
You used to like the sad songs of doom and gloom
You started out with nothing but throwaways
You couldn't live with me so you moved
To Brooklyn
Brooklyn
