Title:  nobody loves the subway

Composer:  Joe Raposo

Lead vocals:  Morgan Freeman

Backing vocals:  none

Scene:  Morgan as the mayor in his office, complaining to a reporter.

[MF]  It takes them all to work and back,

Yet all I ever hear is flack.

Nobody, nobody, nobody loves the subway.

They travel hours and hours and hours,

All under this great town of ours,

But nobody, nobody, nobody loves the subway.

I’ll admit the view is not that grand.

It’s just the point of view I wish they’d understand.

If only they’d enjoy the ride.

Whatever happened to… civic pride?

Nobody, nobody loves the subway.
