Hey
(Anderson)

I'd sell you this life for a dime on the dollar
If I thought that it would buy me some time
Playing the part in this preoccupation
Paying the debts of a dead education
I'd sell you this life for a dime on the dollar
If I thought that it would buy me some time.

And the weekend holds the promise of your younger days
Follow 57th Street along
Take the time to breathe an afternoon of aimlessness
Life is just a metaphor for song

I'd write you a song for a smile on a Monday
If I thought that it would bring you some joy
Savor the joys of your teenage frustration
Filling your ears with a radio station
I'd write you a song for a smile on a Monday

Let the weekend hold the promise of these younger days
Follow 57th Street along
Take the time to breathe an afternoon of aimlessness
Life is just a metaphor for song

Hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey hey...
