Brooklyn Baby lyrics

They say I'm too young to love you

I don't know what I need

They think I don't understand

The Freedomland of the seventies

I think I'm too cool to know ya

You say I'm like the ice I freeze

I'm churning out novels like

Beat poetry on Amphetamines

I say

I say

Well my boyfriend's in the band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get down to Beat poetry

And my jazz collection’s rare

I can play most anything

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

They say I'm too young to love you

You say I'm too dumb to see

They judge me like a picture book

By the colors like they forgot to read

I think we're like fire and water

I think we're like the wind and sea

You're burning up, I'm cooling down

You're up, I'm down

You're blind, I see

But I'm free

I'm free

Well my boyfriend's in a band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my hair

I get down to beat poetry

And my jazz collection’s rare

I can play most anything

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I’m talking about my generation

Talking about that newer nation

And if you don't like it

You can beat it

Beat it, baby

You never liked the way I said it

If you don't get it, then forget it

So I don't have to fucking explain it

And my boyfriend’s in a band

He plays guitar while I sing Lou Reed

I've got feathers in my head

I get high on hydroponic weed

And my jazz collection’s rare

I get down to beat poetry

I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby

Yeah my boyfriend's really cool

But he's not as cool as me

Cause I'm a Brooklyn baby

I'm a Brooklyn baby
