Julian, darling, brooklyn is calling
Calling out your name.
Julian, darling, sirens are singing
Begging you to come and play.
Julian, darling, telephone's ringing
But you won't listen.

We all just wanna get through
Before the setting moon.
We all just wanna get through to you.

Julian darling, the children are quarreling
And it's all over you
Out on the doorstep
21 girls scouts selling cookies to that tune.
Robrins and starlings sing for their darling
But you won't listen.

We all just wanna get through
Before the setting moon.
We all just wanna get through to you.

'cause all we need is just a compass and a pen
Map it out and let the arrows guide you in
'cause in the end we're all directionless
When north is south and east is west
And every step we conquer less
When north is south and east is west
All we have are the people we call friends

Julian, darling, brooklyn is starving
Hungry, just like you
The houses are winning, the table is spinning
Strains of 'darling, be home soon'
The hudson is rising, advertising
But you won't listen

We all just wanna get through
Before the setting moon.
We all just wanna get through to you.

'cause all we need is just a compass and a pen
Map it out and let the arrows guide you in
'cause in the end we're all directionless
When north is south and east is west
And every step we conquer less
When north is south and east is west
All we have are the people we like best
All we have are the people we call friends
All we have are the people we like best
All we have are the people we call friends
