hey, mister crossing lady
lots of sunshine but your corner’s shady

you say that life has passed you by
you can drink but you can’t drive
in a playhouse world you can dress the part
what the kids don’t know won’t break their hearts

hey, mister crossing lady
lots of sunshine but your corner’s shady

the dmv possessed your car
the neighbors gawk ‘cause you can’t walk far
now you’re stopping all the traffic
you’re so pretty when you work your magic

hey, mister crossing lady
lots of sunshine but your corner’s shady
