Lyrics

HOMER (Mike Borok)

I saw Homer on the "E" train
Must've come from out of town
Mumbling in broken English
Blindly wandering around

I saw Homer in the alley
Dressed in dirty rags and sandals
Listening to the police sirens
Mugged by thugs, harassed by vandals

And I feel like a one-eyed monster
Living in a concrete cave
I know I'll never be a hero
Money is the only thing I'll save

Homer lived by the diner's dumpster
Surrounded by discarded Trojans
Ate his meals in the parking lot
Warmed his hands over the engines

Long ago he left his homeland
Followed dreams and crossed the ocean
Fought against strange gods and men
Washed ashore where no one knows him

And I dream I'm an ancient sailor
Battling the wind and waves
Riding the "E" train to Ground Zero
Where money is the only thing I'll save

Homer hung with the kitchen workers
Entertained them with his stories
Then he went to sleep in a cardboard box
Dreaming of his fabled glories
Dreaming of his fabled glories
