Every Subway Car by Barenaked Ladies Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My backpack was faded black, but now it's all blue
It looks whack, but it's compact, and works like brand new
I had found an old Greyhound, but it wasn't my scene
I'm underground at the turnaround; this one is pristine

[Chorus]
Warehouses above, all I'm thinkin' of
You gave your heart to me and soon the world will see
Our graffiti love, spray paint on my glove
They'll wonder who you are on every subway car

[Verse 2]
I'm on my own, I'm Sly Stallone, I did it for you
I've outgrown my wings, and flown into something brand new
I show restraint, I'm the patron saint of urban gardens in bloom
If I don't faint ingesting paint, breathing all of these fumes

[Chorus]
Warehouses above, all I'm thinkin' of
You gave your heart to me and soon the world will see
Our graffiti love, spray paint on my glove
They'll wonder who you are on every subway car
[Bridge]
On every subway car you look amazing
While streaming out of bars, their glasses raising
Systemically refused, then chemically removed

[Chorus]
Warehouses above, all I'm thinkin' of
You gave your heart to me and soon the world will see
Our graffiti love, spray paint on my glove
They'll wonder who you are on every subway car
Our graffiti love
On every subway car
