Avenue B
Rapper standing on the cornerWrappers flying in the wind
Waitress up from alabama
Can't believe the cold she's in
And me, i'm sitting in my castle
On the verge of a divorce
And if i haven't got a hassle
I'll create my own, of course
Still i gotta live with my feelings
But i know about science too
And fame and death and money
And what they do to you
And i am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
Tonight on avenue b
I bought about a hundred candles
I'm burnin' em both night and day
I'm sleepin' when i should be eatin'
Cryin' when i should be gay
My girlfriend's warm and loves me
She's knockin' but she can't get in
I'm a product of the paranoia
Of the age i'm in
And i am gonna need a miracle
I'm really gonna need a miracle
I'm really gonna need a miracle
Tonight on avenue b
I see the students out my window
They're walking in their student clothes
Eatin' books and information
To make their understanding grow
But this much i understand
It's hard to be an empty man
But since i gave `em every part of me
I ain't free
And i am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
Tonight on avenue b
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
I am gonna need a miracle
Tonight on avenue b
