i went walking through the city
like a drunk, but not
with my slip showin’ a little
like a drunk, but not
and i am one of your people
but the cars don’t stop
and i am one of your people
but the cars don’t stop
it’s been a long time since before i’ve been touched
now i’m gettin’ touched all the time
and it’s only a matter of whom
and it’s only a matter of when—
