Do you see that thing? I'm sure it's love Would you do one thing? New York's in love
The city grew wings in the back of night The clouds are stuck like candy floss She sees the rich trash having all the fun Makes her wonder where they get the energy from
There's nothing you can do to her This city's all clean and waiting I don't mean to wait too long But this joint can't get much higher
New York's in love With her big green eyes And her long blonde hair New York's in flames
New York's in love With the way she talks And the way she walks New York's in love
My, oh, my, it's a tom tom beat No one knows they've had their day We can dance and we can see the singles swing Everybody's waiting for the go-go boys
You're turned to stone by the family It's now the dead speak to the living Nothing left here but a raging blaze And I don't mean to wait too long
New York's in love With her big green eyes And her long blonde hair New York's in flames
New York's in love With the way she talks And the way she walks New York's in love
Pretty as a picture New York, New York Ugly on each side
