All those dreams and broken glass

Swept down the sewer with the rest of the trash never to be seen again

Now you're makin' a home in a garbage can!

But here's a little story that I lived to tell

Hello from the gutter! Hello from our little hell.!.

Wasted days, wasted nights, hypnotized by the city lights!

Another king, another queen livin' in the shadows so they can't be seen!

Remember all the world lies at your feet and the big apple's rotten

-- Rotten in the heat

~Hello! Hello!~ Hello from the gutter! ~Hello! Hello!~

Gutter child, sweet sixteen, Broadway stars that have never been!

All those dreams and broken glass swept down the sewer with the rest of the trash

Well, here's a little story that we lived to tell

Hello from the gutter! Hello from our little hell.!.

Hello from the gutter.!.

Welcome the the gutter! We've been expecting you!
