note that i'm not a english native speaker [ tried to begin a discussion about it here : http://www.pigpenpoetry.com/showthread.php?tid=14786 ]

I wanna live in 68
I wanna dress in black
Break your windows-- You lose the parallel nature of your list here and it feels unfinished.
City smells like crack -- This doesn't read proper grammatically maybe and the city smells like crack or something.

I love my cigarettes and flags
Love my band
We are the Adolf Hitlers
Dogs, what a dirty sand. -- Dirty sand?


dirty sand refers to pollucted beaches; local turistical points; or desert sand, the general idea of being without water;


I got my little indigo girl
She's writing for the news
She knows everything about
How everybody feels

Every man in city -- maybe in the city. or in Chicago or something.
Watches her tv shows
Television won't
Ever be the same.

Television shows
Lock that door
Your boyfriend had a hat
Dogs, what a dirty floor.

I would work on the grammar here, but you have some interesting ideas.
