I'm standing on the corner of tragedy and vine
A lonely worn out mourner stopping at the sign
My dog just died I haven't cried 'til now
I spent the last two dollars that i could borrow
trying to get to Gotham by tomorrow I should learn how to drive, but I'm barely alive
And there's only one guy that I know give me his car Where's Mantis Evar he'd know what to say
he'd be strumming on his guitar and living for today
where's mantis Evar he'd know what to do
He'd be pa**ing me a cigar and bidding me adieu look at me ain't that a corker I can't beg a light
My girl's back in New Yorker, my brother say's I'm sh**e
They're getting hitched, your love's a b**h and how
She say's where do be December
That I'm the saddest one that she remembers I should learn how to drive, but I'm barely alive
And there's only one guy that I know give me his car Where's Mantis Evar he'd know what to say
he'd be strumming on his guitar and living for today
where's mantis Evar he'd know what to do
He'd be pa**ing me a cigar and bidding me adieu [Instrumental] The street kids pa** too near
they mumble threats and curses
And theres no cab still here
just hummers, who*es and hearses I'm waiting on the corner of comedy and vine
Feeling like a foreigner pining for some wine
And morning lights do feel so bright as I am
there's no one here knows where he might be stayin'
Maybe he left that is what they're all saying I should learn how to drive, but I'm barely alive
And there's only one guy that I know give me his car Where's Mantis Evar he'd know what to say
he'd be strumming on his guitar and living for today
where's mantis Evar he'd know what to do
He'd be pa**ing me a cigar and bidding me adieu
