I am just a poor boy Though my story's seldom told I have squandered my resistance For a pocketful of mumbles Such are promises All lies and jest Still a man hears what he wants to hear And disregards the rest When I left my home and my family I was no more than a boy In the company of strangers In the quiet of the railway station Running scared Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters Where the ragged people go Looking for the places only they would know Asking only workman's wages, I come looking for a job But I get no offers Just a come-on from the whores on 7th Avenue I do declare, there were times when I was so lonesome I took some comfort there, la-la-la-la-la-la-la Then I'm laying out my winter clothes And wishing I was gone, going home Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me Leading me, going home In the clearing stands a boxer And a fighter by his trade And he carries the reminders Of every glove that laid him down Or cut him till he cried out In his anger and his shame I am leaving, I am leaving But the fighter still remains Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie-lie-lie-lie-lie Lie-la-lie Lie-la-lie-lie-lie-lie-lie, lie-lie-lie-lie-lie (((no text in Image at all))

A surrealist and cubist inspired oil painting depicting a complex narrative across three vertical panels. The left panel shows a young man with curly hair, in patterned clothing, sitting on a suitcase on a rainy train station platform. A vintage train is at the platform, and people walk away from the viewer towards a cityscape with towering skyscrapers under a cloudy sky with a full moon. The middle panel features a large, stylized closed eye and geometric shapes in muted and vibrant colors (red, blue, yellow, black, white, brown) interplaying with subtly rendered human figures and faces. Below the eye, a group of people including a man in a hat and two women in dresses are seated. To the right of this group, a woman with bare shoulders and curly hair looks down, possibly holding something. The right panel shows two shirtless boxers in a ring, one wearing red gloves and the other blue, engaged in a fight, with a blurred audience in the background. Above them, a figure resembling Christ on the cross is depicted against a dark blue background with abstract designs. Throughout the artwork, abstract lines, circles, and geometric patterns connect the different scenes and elements. The overall style is a blend of realism, cubism, and surrealism.
