The City

Gonna stay out of New York

There's somethin' there that gives me crazy

No I won't go back

There's somethin' there that bleeds me dry

It gets so bad that I stop breathin'

And then the sun don't wanna shine

Well there's somethin' wrong with New York

It's a prison without walls

I won't sit with them

I just don't like that place at all

Now you might call it sophistication

But I say time is runnin' out

I say, I won't go back to New York

There's a darkness all around

No, I just can't handle it

You know that place is gettin' me down

Now you might say, it's sophistication

But I say time is runnin' out
