"Spaced" lyrics

A space is a place that's a beautiful thing
When I see one that's free I wanna sing
Squeezin' into a tight one such pleasure can bring
A space is a place that's a beautiful thing

Sometimes you find a space and for it you must fight
Sometimes you find a space you drive around half the night
When folks take up a space and a half, that's not right
Sometimes you find a space, for it you must fight

When I see a space that I don't even need
It's a twinge and a feeling that's akin to greed
It's a case of space envy, I'd say so indeed
When I see a space I don't even need
I still want that space, yeah

Mondays and Thursdays, eleven-thirty to one
They're cleaning the street, man, you're under the gun
When you waitin', alternatin', no, it ain't tons of fun
As of Monday and Thursdays, eleven-thirty to one

But in my part of town the cops cast a blind eye
Folks double park till a sweeper goes by
Then they can sit in clean space and livin' a lie
In my part of town cops cast a blind eye

And when the rules are suspended it's too good to be true
Ash Wednesday, Abe's Birthday, Passover too!
Yeah, I love all the holy days, although I'm no jew
When the rules are suspended it's too good to be true
Asian Lunar New Year too, you got to love it

A car in the City's just a pain in the ass
It's an albatross made out of chrome, steel, and glass
It's nice to know that you can get out of town fast
But a car in the City's a pain in the ass

When some hear the word space they think of the moon
The stars and the planets or a Sun Ra tune
They all think where, when, what day and how soon?
I'll park here on earth - the hell with the moon!

A space is a place that's a beautiful thing
I get into a new one - such pleasure it brings
If you'll vacate me a space now, it's to thee I sing
A space is a place, it's a
Marvelous place, it's a
Magical place, it's a
Meaningful place, it's a
Wonderful...that's a beautiful thing!
A space is a place that's a beautiful thing
