Jonathan Richman & The Modern Lovers Lonely Financial Zone

In the lonely financial zone by the sea
I have walked under moon and stars
Skyscrapers shown in their dark majesty
In this otherworldly land of ours

I've walked by the buildings
I've walked by the malls
I've walked by the skyscrapers
lonely and dark

In the lonely financial zone by the sea
I have walked under moon and stars

In the lonely financial zone by the sea
I have walked on cold winter nights
I've stood in awe, so silently
Under the buzzing electric light

Boats in the harbor, gulls on the pier
Ships and trucks and sailors in the bars
In the lonely financial zone By the sea
I've often walked under moon and stars
