NEW YORK, ca sĩ Audition - VIETNAMOBILE

In New York freedom looks like too many choices
In New York I found a friend to drown out the other voices
Voices on a cell phone - voices from home
Voices of the hard sell - voices down a stairwell
In New York - just got a place in New York
In New York summers get hot - well into the hundreds
You can't walk around the block without a change of clothing
Hot as a hair dryer in your face
Hot as handbag and a can of mace
New York - I just got a place in New York
New York - New York
In New York you can forget - forget how to sit still
Tell yourself you will stay in, but it's down to Alphaville
New York - New York --
The Irish been coming here for years
Feel like they own the place
They got the airport, city hall
Dance hall, dance floor - they even got the police
Irish, Italians, Jews and Hispanics
Religious nuts, political fanatics in the stew
Happily not like me and you
That's where I lost you
New York - New York --
In New York I lost it all to you and your vices
Still I'm staying on to figure out my mid-life crisis
I hit an iceberg in my life
You know I'm still afloat
You lose your balance - lose your wife
In the queue for the lifeboat
You better put the women and children first
But you've got an unquenchable thirst
For New York
New York - New York --
In the stillness of the evening
When the sun has had its day
I heard your voice whispering
Come away now
New York - New York --
