He’s got hair in his eyes
Smoke in his lung
The weight of age
But he walks like he’s young
Knows a little about money
A lot about jazz
Next to nothing about loving
But love is all that he has
I’d like to figure him out

He’s got a thick leather jacket
And a softer voice
And if he has to pick
He’ll take the meatier choice
He’s seen a little of the people
And a lot of the land
And living in the city is nothing
Like he had planned
I’d like to figure him out

He doesn’t give me the time of day
No how, no way
No matter what I say
No, baby, not today
He doesn’t need or heed the call to feed
He doesn’t bleed
There is no follow that can match his lead
And damn, baby, I’ve got the biggest crush
She walks Columbus Circle
Distracted by the lights
Stress fracture in her foot
And a run in her tights
The way the sun sets
Over the fountain, the park
She stands until she forgets
She meant to get home before dark
And I’d like to figure her out

She gets lost in the shadows, high on the roof
Off on establishing a logical proof
She’s got nothing to offer and less to lose
And holes in the soles of both of her shoes
And I’d like to figure her out

She doesn’t give me the time of day
No how, no way
No matter what I say
No, baby, not today
She doesn’t need or heed the call to feed
She doesn’t bleed
There is no follow that can match her lead
She is blessed, possessed, no, she cannot rest
On this quest to stoke the spirit deep inside of her chest
And damn, baby, don’t you got
I’ve got the biggest crush
And he’s a fortress that you cannot breach
She’s the pit inside the flesh of your velvety peach
And they are destinations you and I may never reach
Oh
Still, they are never too tired
Always awake
So full of feeling that they
Constantly, constantly, constantly quake
They’ve got fists made for fighting
And lips that can heal
And tongues that wag hungry
And, god, how they feel
I’d like to figure them out
Come on, let’s figure them out

But they won’t give us the time of day
No how, no way
No matter what we say
No, baby, not today
They don’t need or heed the call to feed
They don’t bleed
There is no follow that can match their lead
They are blessed, possessed
No, they cannot rest
On this quest to stoke the spirit deep inside of their chest
They’ve no names, no shame
No real claim to fame
They just might be the monsters
That they came here to tame
And damn, baby, I
Damn, baby, I
Damn, baby, I
Damn, baby, I
Damn, baby, I
Don’t you got, ‘cause
I've got, don’t you got, ‘cause
I've got, don’t you got, ‘cause
I've got, don’t you got, ‘cause
I've got, don’t you got, ‘cause
I’ve got, don’t you got, ‘cause
I’ve got
I’ve got the biggest crush
Ooh yeah yeah

Come on, let’s figure them out
Come on, let’s figure them out
Come on, let’s figure them out
Ooh
