When we’ve resigned / In the long run, what do we leave behind? / Most of all, I’ll miss Abuela’s whispers / Doin’ the Lotto Pick Six every Christmas / In five years, when this whole city’s rich folks and hipsters / Who’s gonna miss this raggedy little business? / / [GRAFFITI PETE, spoken] / What it do? Ha ha, great sunlight this morning.​ / / [SONNY, spoken] / Yo cuz!
