Track Insight / Lyrics
Cobblestones cold, misty air on your face
From the corner store, you glide into this place
Cat eyes gleam in the dim, a phantom in the night
This brick-laid sidewalk's your domain, your delight
Oh, you're the king of Allston Way
Midnight watch, under stars and gray
Neon puddles reflect your stride
Circling through the Boston night
Shadows play, the streetlamp's pale glow
Your paws patter soft to the rhythm below
Locals pass, but you're unseen, a ghost
Monarchs of this metropolis, reining supreme
Oh, you're the king of Allston Way
Midnight watch, under stars and gray
Neon puddles reflect your stride
Circling through the Boston night
Bass thumps, brass stabs, a funky jam
Piano keys glint, a retro slam
Halloween excitement, a parade gone by
But you remain, steadfast at the heart of the sky
There's magic here, in every brick and stone
A storybook world, where you're the alluring tone
Oh, you're the king of Allston Way
Midnight watch, under stars and gray
Neon puddles reflect your stride
Circling through the Boston night
Somewhere to roam, a kingdom all your own
This Boston street, your throne
Crowd comes, goes, but you stay put
Watching over, as the world gets turned up
Oh, you're the king of Allston Way
Midnight watch, under stars and gray
Neon puddles reflect your stride
Circling through the Boston night
Prowling into dawn, a satisfied sigh
The city stirs, as the sun rises high
Your shift's complete, till the next twilight's hush
In Allston Way, you're always in thrush.
