they might say they know
the way you are to spend your time
they might try to keep you down
they said: c'mon girl
we know the names we should protect you
from burnin' love that rips your heart

one day you're strong enough
to find yourself forever
now you follow the blue fast car lines
back to your big city lights

let them know about your
each-night-lovely runaways
make them read that from your eyes
a thousand mornings when
you're feeling bad & sad & lonely
like thousand trains calling at your room

dirty eden's dream
that you would like to dream
but there's only water
at the bottom of your heart
it's your big city spleen

one day you're strong enough
to find yourself forever
when you follow the blue fast car lines
... you're the big city girl
