Well I got down on the subway with my oldest friend Jean Luke And commemorated the occasion with his gin and my juice "Luke, you got me thinkin', you're drunk all the time" "No" with a chuckle, "I'm not drunk I feel so fine" Lay it down in full view Lay it down in full view Well stuck there on the D train where it heads above ground Into a scene of blasted buildings Where the drunks go to fall down Starin' out the window asked about Secona Lee "And Luke, do me a favor, never mention that to me" Lay it down in full view And lay it down in full view He's still starin' out the window as I pat myself on the back And I feel a little better 'cause I'll never end like that But you know our only difference He gets drunk while I chase fame Just like Luke in the evening, there's no one to say my name Lay it down in full view Layin' it down in full view
