When I started geocaching I always knew I wanted to name a cache
after this song. This is my first cache, so here we, here we
go...
Cache is not in front of this (impossible) location. Visit this
NYC landmark to truly see what rules everything around us. The cops
here are nothing to mess with. I put the Mystery Chest Box in these
coordinates because it is very appropriate to the song title. It is
about a short 1 mile walk north to the cache. It is in a
residential neighborhood with some real nice views of the river (in
the winter bring a scarf to protect your neck). Mystery Chest Box
coords are also a short walk to the Ferry, which you can take to
the borough that this group originally hails from.
Name that album:
Find out what 1993 (Parental Advisory) album this song appears
in. The 2 digit number in the album title is what will be needed to
find this cache. Replace uu with the 2 digit number.
Listen to the song:
At what age did he start smoking? = xx
How many long hard years was he struggling? = yy
How many of us were in the back of the bus? or how many G's did we
make every week? = zz
uu+xx+yy=ww
N zz.71wwuu° - W ww.01uu00°
Now convert that to your preferred format of choice using

NEXT: Once you get to these coordinates let your feet stomp
about uu meters west to final location where the
cache is hanging out at.
The word after the 2 digits in the album title is also the name of
the street that this cache is located on
This is magnetic so there are only a couple logical places this
cache can be.
Can it be all so simple? Yes, it can. Shame on you if you don't
find it. Method to the mandess.
I left a WG dollar, dollar bill y'all. Try to leave (geo)coins
and WG bills in this one as it pertains to the cache. BYOP. Thanks
guys.
Edit: I made the puzzle a little tougher so you actually have to
get through the song to get the coords. Still pretty easy.
You can check your answers for this puzzle on

Congrats to G.O.C. for FTF!! How fitting!
