Lyrics:

Grace Cathedral Hill
All wrapped in bones of setting sun
All dust and stone and moribund
I paid 25-cents to light a little white candle
For a New Year's Day
I sat and watched it burn away
Then turned and weaved through slow decay
We were both a little hungry, so we went to get a hot dog
Down the Hyde Street Pier
The light was slight and disappeared
The air, it stunk of fish and beer
We heard a Superman trumpet play the national anthem
And the world may be long for you
But it'll never belong to you
But on a motorbike, when all the city lights
Blind your eyes tonight
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Some way to greet the year
Your eyes all bright and brimmed with tears
The pilgrims, pills, and tourists here
All sing, '53 bucks to buy a brand-new halo'
Sweet on a green-eyed girl
All fiery, Irish clip and curl
All brine and piss and vinegar
I paid 25 cents to light a little white candle
And the world may be long for you
But it'll never belong to you
But on a motorbike when all the city lights
Blind your eyes tonight
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la-ah
