Atlanta

Jackie’s waiting for his train right now
With his trademark Monday pout
As it turns out all the subway lines are out
Heavy rain starts comin down
Jackie’s riding on his bike to work
Won’t pay money for a cab
Brakes too hard and slides his wheels into a curb
Splashes gutter on my shirt
With the wetness comes resentment from inside
I try to take these things in stride
I keep pushing though I know there’s something wrong
Guess it’s high time to move on
I’m too classy for Atlanta
I’m much better than New York
Now I’m standing proud in Boston
But I’m standing here alone
Hammy’s late to meet her man again
Used to be just now and then
Doesn’t make it to the dinner in the end
Broken up with over text
Hammy’s goin' hard downtown tonight
She ain’t got too much to lose
Comin' out of the club at half past two
Pukes all over my nice shoes
That first step is simple, I know it’s not me
I can just get out of this city
With these soggy sneakers comes a denouement
Think it’s high time to move on
Cause I’m too classy for Atlanta
I’m much better than New York
Now I’m standing proud in Boston
But I’m standing here alone
Time to move across the world again
I thought this one might last long
It’s the same as all the other towns I’ve been
But I’m tired of moving on
I’m too classy for Atlanta
I’m much better than New York
Now I’m standing proud in Boston
But I’m standing here alone
I’m too classy for Atlanta
I deserve better than you
Trying so hard to convince myself
But part of me wonders
Part of me wonders
If that’s true
