New York, I Love You lyrics

New York I love you
But you're bringing me down
New York I love you
But you're bringing me down
Like a rat in a cage
Hauling minimum wage
New York I love you
But you're bringing me down
New York you're safer
And you're wasting my time
Our records all show
You are filthy but fine
But they shuttered your stars
When you opened the doors
To the cops who were bored
Once they'de run out of crime
New York you're perfect
Oh please don't change a thing
Your mild billionaire mayor's now convinced he's a king
So the boring collect
I mean all disrespect
In the neighbourhood bars I once dreamt i would drink
New York I love you
But you're freaking me out
There's a ton of the tiwst
But we're fresh out of shout
Like a death in the hall
That you hear through your wall
New York I love you
But you're freaking me out
New York I love you
But you're bringing me down
New York I love you
But you're bringing me down
Like a death of the heart
Jesus, where do I start
But you're still the one pool where I'd happily drown...
And oh! Take me off your mailing list
For kids who think it still exists
Yes, for those who think it still exists
Maybe I'm wrong
And maybe you're right
Maybe I'm wrong and maybe you're right
Maybe you're right
Maybe I'm wrong
And just maybe you're right...
And ohhhh
Maybe mother told you true
And there'll always be somebody there for you
And you'll never be alone
But maybe she's wrong
And maybe I'm right
And just maybe she's wrong...
Maybe she's wrong
And maybe I'm right
And if so, here's this song!
