Lyrics 

Build a fire for Val Jester
 Build a room for your love
 Take your time when you tell her
 How she lives in your blood
 
 You should've looked after her better
 You should've looked after her more
 ♪
 You should've locked the door
 ♪
 Fill her coat with weapons and help her get it on
 ♪
 'Cuz one day when she goes, she's gone
 ♪
 You should've held on to her better
 You should've held on to her more
 ♪
 You should've locked the door
 ♪
 All the most important people in New York are nineteen
 All the most important people in New York
 All the most important people in New York are nineteen
 All the most important people in New York
