Key to the City

A key to the city
Ooh a girl can dream
Ooh I’ll keep you posted
Wish I knew more than I do

Chorus:
A key to the city
If you get a key to the city
Make sure your key to the city
Gets you into the train station

Do I get to cut a ribbon
I’ll stay if I get to cut a ribbon
Yeh I’ll talk to the Mayor
Tell him how I wanna get the fuck outta here

Chorus:
A key to the city
If you get a key to the city
Make sure your key to the city
Gets you into the train station

Maybe I can ask for fruit baskets
Maybe they’ll be serving
Cheese
Wine
Nuts
Smoked meats
Juice boxes….

I might slip in a suggestion
Bout not lettin homeless people
Freeze to death in the winter
When I talk to the Mayor

A key to the city
Ooh a girl can dream
Ooh I’ll keep you posted
Wish I knew more than I do

Chorus:
A key to the city
If you get a key to the city
Make sure your key to the city
Gets you into the train station
