David Byrne and St. Vincent
optimist
Select language to translate this lyric
Waitingâbut I donât mind
Iâm all bus stops and heat
Iâm neonâin your daylight
Iâm the optimist of 30th Street
How it is is how it oughta be
I got anything but moneyed esteem
Drinks on Condè Nast
Iâm the optimist of 30th Street
How it is is how it oughta be
I spy Vivian Girls on the Up, Upper East
There's no reason to be upset
There's no reason to not expect
There's no room for emptiness
No tea or sympathy
There's no room for emptiness
On a never empty street
