Plot: Jesse, an alcoholic drinks so much he can't remember what he did last night. It all takes place in a coffee shop in the West Village, that he manages. The clientèle are three queens, a miss thing and a geek. There's a barrister who thinks he's Robert DeNiro, with occasional transitions out front to the junkie on the corner begging for change. It's the usual insanity of what people in the Village call everyday life. It's offensive, funny and absurd!

Genres: Music,Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she never had a backstreet guy
I bet her mamma never told her why
I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man, that's what I am
And when she knows what she wants from her time
And when she wakes up she makes up her mind
She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because I'm in love with an uptown girl
You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high-class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys, she's got a choice
Uptown girl
You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been, and then I'll win
And when she's walking she's looking so fine
And when she wakes up she makes up her mind
She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because I'm in love with an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man, that's what I am
Uptown girl uptown girl
my uptown girl uptown girl
you know I'm in love with an uptown girl uptown girl
my uptown girl uptown girl
you know I'm in love with an uptown girl uptown girl
yeah yeah uptown girl uptown girl
My uptown girl uptown girl
Let me hear ya, motherfucker
One more time, yeah, yeah, yeah
