lyrics

Thursday night, Shubert Alley, Broadway’s alight
Can anyone see the ghost light in me? As I clap to be polite
Five days gone, six nights only, twelve dozen hours
The pigeons agree; I’m lonely lonely as I wander through the towers

It’s late and I miss you
It’s late and I miss you
It’s difficult to rhyme
In Eastern Standard Time

LGA, middle winter, flight is delayed
If Terminal C could understand me It would sink in Flushing Bay
Pockmarked walls, crumbling sidewalks, creeping decay
If Fiorello could see his namesake’s frailty he’d rotate in his grave

It’s late and I miss you
It’s late and I miss you
It’s difficult to rhyme
In Eastern Standard Time

L-A-G-U-A-R-D-I-A
The name’s La Guardia
L-A-G-U-A-R-D-I-A
The name’s La Guardia

Talk about going out on a high note. I know this group continues under an equally-impressive creative outlet, but the Polymaths close out their run with an astoundingly complete and compelling last effort. I love this so much. Patrick Book
