New York I Love You But You're Bringing Me Down 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 Pulling 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 stores When you opened the doors To the cops who were bored Once they'd run out of crime
New York, you're perfect Don't please don't change a thing Your mild billionaire mayor's Now convinced he's a king
And so the boring collect I mean all disrespect In the neighborhood bars I'd once dreamt I would drink
New York, I love you But you're freaking me out There's a ton of the twist 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 oh Maybe mother told you true And there'll always be something there for you And you'll never be alone
But maybe she's wrong Maybe I'm right And just maybe she's wrong
Maybe she's wrong And maybe I'm right And if so, is there If so
