lyrics

[Verse 1]
They’re at your window, telling stories that could win Pulitzers
(You’re on the boulevard, boulevard, boulevard)
You give ‘em $5 and hope they don’t run off and buy some liquor
(You’re on the boulevard, boulevard, boulevard)
But who could blame ‘em, man, it’s getting harder every day
It ain’t no different than you clutching on your IPA
‘Cause everybody’s just a moment from a roof of clouds
‘Cause everybody’s just a second from it falling down

[Hook]
And it ain’t no hiding that
In the place where it’s all colliding at
Where the black and the white both fade to grey
And the world gets right up in ya’ face
No, it ain’t no hiding that
In the place where it’s all colliding at
Where the black and the white both fade to grey
And the world gets right up in ya’ face

[Verse 2]
The youth are up in arms, fed up with the way it is
(You’re on the boulevard, boulevard, boulevard)
The elders roll their eyes, they ain’t tryina’ hear no kids
(You’re on the boulevard, boulevard, boulevard)
The kids got answers ‘cause they cannot see what’s coming up
They’re gonna find out life is waiting with an uppercut
The elders question if they’re weak and just wanna complain
I think they’re scared to death the world they knew is not the same

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
You’re walking with him and you stop and share a pair of kisses
(You’re on the boulevard, boulevard, boulevard)
Now they’re starting mess ‘cause they don’t wanna mind their business
(You’re on the boulevard, boulevard, boulevard)
And you’re so angry that they just won’t let you be in love
And they’re so angry ‘cause of how they think it should be done
And I’m so angry ‘cause I’m walking and y’all in the way
And straight up, wake up, man, it’s 2020: people gay

[Hook]
