Close to the Borderline - Billy Joel[00:00:00]

Written by：Billy Joel[00:00:01]

Blackout heatwave 44 caliber homicide[00:00:16]

The buns drop dead and the dogs go mad[00:00:22]

In packs on the west side[00:00:24]

The young girl standing on a ledge looks like another suicide[00:00:27]

She wants to hit those bricks[00:00:32]

'Cause the news at six gotta stick to a deadline[00:00:34]

While the millionaires hide in beekman place[00:00:37]

The bag ladies throw their bones in my face[00:00:40]

I get attacked by a kid with stereo sound[00:00:43]

I don't want to hear it but he won't turn it down[00:00:45]

Life is tough but it's just enough[00:00:48]

To hold back the tears until it's closing time[00:00:51]

I survived I'm still alive[00:00:55]

But I'm getting close to the borderline[00:00:57]

Aha close to the borderline aha oh[00:01:01]

A buck three eighty[00:01:09]

Won't buy you much lately on the street these days[00:01:11]

And when you can get gas[00:01:14]

You know you can't drive fast anymore on the parkways[00:01:16]

Rich man poor man either way American[00:01:20]

Shoved into the lost and found[00:01:23]

The no nuke yell we're gonna all go to hell[00:01:25]

With the next big meltdown[00:01:28]

I got remote control and a color TV[00:01:30]

I don't change channels so they must change me[00:01:33]

I got real close friends that will get me high[00:01:36]

They don't know hot to talk and they ain't gonna try[00:01:38]

I shouldn't bitch I shouldn't cry[00:01:41]

I'd start a revolution but I don't have time[00:01:44]

I don't know why I'm still a nice guy[00:01:47]

But I'm getting close to the borderline aha[00:01:50]

Close to the borderline hmm aha[00:01:56]

I thought I'd sacrifice so many things[00:02:03]

I thought I'd throw them all away[00:02:08]

I didn't think I needed anything[00:02:14]

But you can't afford to squander what you're not prepared to pay[00:02:18]

Oh wow wow wow wowowow[00:02:25]

I need a doctor for my pressure pills[00:02:45]

I need a lawyer for my medical bills[00:02:48]

I need a banker to finance my home[00:02:50]

Well I need security to back my loan[00:02:53]

It isn't new what I'm going through[00:02:56]

But everybody knows you got to break sometime[00:02:58]

Another night I fought the good fight gurl yeah[00:03:02]

Closer to the borderline aha[00:03:05]

Closer to the borderline I'm aha[00:03:10]

Closer to the borderline I'm I'm I'm[00:03:15]

Closer to the borderline ai ai ai ai ai ai ai aha[00:03:20]

Closer to the borderline to the borderline ai ai[00:03:31]
