Shattered

Lyrics for Shattered

Shattered, shattered Love and hope and sex and dreams are still surviving on the streets And look at me, I'm in tatters I'm shattered Shattered Friends are so alarming, my lover's never charming Life's just a cocktail party on the street, Big Apple People dressed in plastic bags (shadoobie, shattered) Directing traffic, some kind of fashion Shattered Laughter, joy, and loneliness and sex and sex and sex and sex And look at me, I'm in tatters I'm shattered Shattered All this chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter 'bout Shmatta, shmatta, shmatta, I can't give it away on 7th Avenue (shadoobie, shattered) This town's been wearing tatters, uh-huh Shadoobie, shattered Work and work for love and sex And ain't you hungry for success, success, success, success Does it matter? Shattered, does it matter? (Shattered) Ah, look at me, I'm shattered I'm shattered Look at me, I'm shattered Shattered Pride and joy and greed and sex, that's what makes our town the best Pride and joy and dirty dreams and still surviving on the street (Tatters) And look at me, I'm in tatters I've been battered (shattered) What does it matter? (shattered) Does it matter? (shattered) Uh-huh, does it matter? Uh-huh, I'm shattered Mmm, shattered Shadoobie, shattered Shadoobie, shattered Shadoobie, shattered, shattered Don't you know the crime rate's going up, up, up, up, up (shadoobie, shattered) To live in this town, you must be tough, tough, tough, tough, tough, tough, tough (shadoobie, shattered, shadoobie, shattered, shattered) You got rats on the west side, bed bugs uptown (shadoobie, shattered) What a mess, this town's in tatters, I've been shattered (shadoobie, shattered) My brain's been battered, splattered all over Manhattan (shadoobie, shattered) Shadoobie, shattered, shattered Shadoobie, shattered Shadoobie, shattered Shadoobie, shattered Uh-huh, this town's full of money grabbers (shadoobie, shattered, shattered) Go ahead, bite the Big Apple, don't mind the maggots, uh-huh (shadoobie, shattered, shadoobie, shattered) Shadoobie, my brain's been battered (shadoobie, shattered, shattered) My friends they come around they (Shadoobie, shattered) Flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter (Shadoobie, shattered) Pile it up, pile it up, pile it high on the platter (Shadoobie, shattered, shattered)
