Lead us not into Penn station
He dreams of his lawn
And laughing at the voice on the crackling radio station
And she's making the scene
She's ahead of the line
At the man in the cardboard coffin
We're all becoming once again
And she's taking her time
And here is the man pushing paper past her
She's a hell of a girl
She's alone in the world
Till the path train finally comes
And all about the pretty careerist the next cube over
The platform's full of bums again
She's taking a sick day soon
With the coffee and cream
She's making a play
Doesn't have to be here too often
And the copy machine's not working
She's on her way
It doesn't have to be fine
And she likes to say "Hey good looking"
Thinks up ways to make the day go faster
And she's making the scene
And she likes to say "Hey good looking"
The fat secretary, the lunchtime lover
But the day goes on and on
She's taking a sick day soon
With the coffee and cream
She's on her way
'Cause the best part's just begun
And the day has barely begun
She's alone in the world
As she's tossing a dime
She's a hell of a girl
They're all chewing gum
And the coffee machine's not working
