Another downtown street is lain with bodies, young for thirty.

 Feeling old.

 I'm going home.

But I just want a drink away from home, a couple shots

 an ear to bend

 between weekends.

 Am I the only one without a nine to five

 This Friday night?

There's way too many people here. Not even through the door

 Hey, there's a fight

 Amateur night

 And the cigarette smokers form barricades.

 They need a fire marshal to get in the rave. Hey, hey.

And tonight is nothing special.

I'm not wanting for this world to change.

Another downtown street is lain with minds too dumb for twenty.

 All the same.

 Smiling away.

Am I the only one who doesn't want a fight?

 All my friends are weekends warriors but I'll be back.

 Monday night.
