New York Times

New York, poor New York

New York, poor New YorkCars choking your child to death

But you don't wanna see

'Cause you only think about yourself

How blind can you beNew York, poor New York

Sniper on the rooftop, New York

New York, poor New York

Not fit for a dog in New YorkEverybody bites on the Big Apple

Leave the hungry in tears

But no one gives a damn, no one really cares

How they feel, they're just paper people not realYou need a gun to walk into New YorkNow you're broke and you're out on a ledge

Who can help you this time

Now you're down to your very last cent

Still you're askin' me who was your friend, I was your friendNew York poor New York

Who turned the lights out in New York

New York, poor New York

Just another blackout in New YorkGirl dead on the twenty sixth floor

But no one knew her name

Found her body behind the door

Too young for the gameNew York, poor New York

Devils in the subway, New York

New York, poor New York

New York, poor New YorkTalkin', talkin', talkin', watch out

Harlem touching midtown New York

New York, poor New York

Talkin' 'bout New York, New York

Money's getting tighter, New York

They're burning the bridges to New York
