Living in a Biking Wonderland

Car-free streets — it can happen
Biking network — close the gaps in
It’s Vision Zero
We need a hero
To get us to a biking wonderland.

Gone away
is old Bloomberg
The new mayor
he gets chauffered
He sings a good song
But it’s taking too long
To get us to a biking wonderland

On the roadways we are under fire
Drivers speed by fearing no arrest
Cops should do what safety would require
The streets have become the Wild West

Police placards should expire
Double-parkers should get fired
But the mayor’s afraid
The cops have him played
Can’t get us to a biking wonderland 
Get us to a biking wonderland
Get us to a biking wonderland
