Lyrics
I went to your street
I visited the place where you live
At seven in the mornin'
At seven in the morning
And while you were asleep
While you were still sleeping
I read your newspaper
I read the newspaper belonging to you
I saw you out walkin'
I observed you walking around
Out walkin' with your father
You were walking with your father
Pretendin' not to see me
Acting as if you didn't notice me
Pretendin' to be a family
Pretending to be a family
I know you tried, baby
I acknowledge your efforts, dear
I know you tried
I recognize that you tried
I know you tried to go on
I understand you attempted to move forward
Saw a metal object
I observed a metallic object
Lyin' in the street
Lying in the street
And when we turned away
When we looked away
It stood itself up
It righted itself
You circled the island
You drove around the island
In a Chevy caprice
In a Chevy Caprice
You stuck out your tongue
You made a gesture of disrespect
And your nose began to bleed
Your nose started bleeding
I know you tried, baby
I acknowledge your efforts, dear
I know you tried
I recognize that you tried
I know you tried to go on
I understand you attempted to move forward
I know you tried, baby
I acknowledge your efforts, dear
I know you tried
I recognize that you tried
I know you tried to go on
I understand you attempted to move forward
