Life is hard under the el, if you listen close enough theres a story to tell, Friends come and gone , heartbeats gone flat, there at the end of the line, and I dont mean "Bridge & Pratt" , And all I'm saying is everybody falls off their perch, it's the unholy grail right there at "Church" , Look how life's track Mark's have derailed, you got people lost all the way up to "Erie & Torresdale" , Now they're leaning and Nodding and they ain't doing yoga, its twisted living, that's how they do it at "Tioga" , Addiction really does effect so many, this shit has stretched way beyond k&a part of "Allegheny" , But it's better then being homeless, selling works to forget, its the addicts debt at "Somerset" , Shooting and Smoking is a sin , but the devils got dues, and he collects at "Huntington" , People are now falling out, bodies are laying in coffins, that's how there viewing at "York & Dauphin" , From pawn shops to parks, you can sell everything even your kids, down around "Berks" So for those that don't want change cause change is to hard , na they rather beg for change at "Front & Girard" , so remember that life is hard under the el, if you listen close enough theres a story to tell, and the best ones usually start with hey "remember that day under the el"
