Some never been past the bridge

Verse:
No more couches to surf
Only beaches in your dreams
No more trannies near work
It's still a drag walking in Queens
It's all blood money in the bank
Somehow some people find the nerve
Like the soldiers they thank down in DC
If I could only find the words
Chorus
Outro: x3
||: G Bm | C D :|| G ||
