Jay Brannan

Bowlegged & Starving

The stars are shining so bright

Wait that's just Manhattans light

It's been 12 hours since I ate

I think I'm finally loosing weight

Mixed up my armour with some knight

Walking home wearing his white

I know what you're gonna say

No one could love me this way

I'm bowlegged and starving but walking home happy

This marked the moment when I felt freedom ring

I've got my laptop for pleasure and my guitar for pain

Love's a buried treasure but I don't need love to feel this way

He said I could spend the night

I said thanks but that's all right

You can paint your number on my face

But I'm not into sleeping at someone else's place

I'm bowlegged and starving but walking home happy

Let this mark the moment when I felt freedom ring

I've got my laptop for pleasure and my guitar for pain

Love's a buried treasure but I don't need love to feel this way

When Brooklyn tossed me a bone it landed in my wishing well

Took the train for hours to this roach motel

Sometimes it's worth it

Sometimes it's hot

Sometimes he loves me

Sometimes he loves me not

I'm bowlegged and starving but walking home happy

Let this mark the moment when I felt freedom ring

I've got my laptop for pleasure and my guitar for pain

Love's a buried treasure but I don't need love to feel this way
