I told myself,
while we were in the subway
that i wasn't gonna have a beer
or grab a pack of cigarettes.
I had a beer up here
and it ran me 7 dollars.
I bought a pack of Marlboros
and that ran me another 13.
I spent twenty dollars
and didn't even get a good
buzzzzz.
New york is a good place to go sober.
