optimist with david byrne

St. Vincent

Waiting, but I don t mind
I m all bus stops and heat
I m neon in your daylight
I m the optimist of 30th Street
How it is is how it oughta be

I got anything but moneyed esteem
Drinks on Condè Nast
I m the optimist of 30th Street
How it is is how it oughta be

I spy Vivian Girls on the Up, Upper East
There s no reason to be upset
There s no reason to not expect

There s no room for emptiness
No tea no sympathy
No room for emptiness
On a never empty street
