White Buttoned Down Shirt

All came from a place in New York City. 

Bronx Catholic school was the center of their world.

These were little hands with big decisions. 

Should I stay home and study or go out with my friends. 

What made us differ from each other? 

Well it sure ain't black oxfords, blue jacket or the white buttoned down shirt. 

Some played with baskets, some played with needles and some played the guitar for all the wrong girls. 

All came from a place in New York City.

A place where mother's came and cried...

Time Is Running Out

When I look around and see the world 

It's like a finger on a trigger pull 

Time is running out 

Give the pot pressure and it will boil
