[Verse 1]
GPedro lives Dout of the AWilshire DHotel
GHe looks Dout a window Awithout Dglass
GThe walls are made of Dcardboard, newsApapers on his Dfeet
GAnd his father Dbeats him 'cause he's Atoo tired to Dbeg
[Verse 2]
He's Ggot 9 brothers and Dsisters, they're Abrought up on their Dknees
It's Ghard to run Dwhen a coat hanger Abeats you on the Dthighs
GPedro dreams of Dbeing older and Akilling the old Dman
GBut that's a slim Dchance he's Agoing to the bouleDvard
[Chorus]
GHe's going to Dend up, on the Adirty bouleDvard
GHe's going oDut, to the Adirty bouleDvard
GHe's going dDown, to the Adirty bouleDvard
G D A D
[Verse 3]
GThis room cost D2,000 dollars a month, you can Abelieve it man it's Dtrue
GSomewhere a Dlandlord's laughing Atill he wets his Dpants
GNo one dreams of Dbeing a doctor or a Alawyer or anyDthing
GThey dream of Ddealing on the Adirty bouleDvard
[Verse 4]
GGive me your Dhungry, your tired, your Apoor I'll piss on 'Dem
GThat's what the DStatue of ABigotry Dsays
GYour poor huddled Dmasses, let's Aclub 'em to Ddeath
GAnd get it over Dwith and just dump 'em Aon the bouleDvard
[Chorus]
GGet em Dout, on the Adirty bouleDvard
GGoing Dout, to the Adirty bouleDvard
GThey're going Ddown, on the Adirty bouleDvard
GGoing out...D A D
[Verse 5]
GOutside it's a Dbright night, there's an Aopera at Lincoln CenDter
GMovie stars Darrive Aby limouDsine
GThe klieg lights Dshoot up over the Askyline of ManDhattan
GBut the Dlights are Aout on the mean Dstreets
[Verse 6]
GA small kid Dstands Aby the Lincoln TunDnel
GHe's selling Dplastic Aroses for a Dbuck
The Gtraffic's Dbacked up Ato 39th DStreet
The GTV whores are Dcalling the Acops out for a Dsuck
[Verse 7]
GAnd back at the DWilshire, Pedro Asits there Ddreaming
GHe's found a Dbook on magic Ain a garbage Dcan
GHe looks at the Dpictures and stares Aup at the cracked Dceiling
"At the Gcount of 3," Dhe says, "I hope AI can disapDpear"
[Outro]
GAnd fly fly Daway, from this Adirty bouleDvard
GI want to Dfly, from the Adirty bouleDvard
GI want to Dfly, from the Adirty bouleDvard
GI want to Dfly fly fly fly, from the Adirty bouleDvard
[Denouement]
