And if the city sky scrapers rise over this island Would you be glad to see Manhattan for once? I knew the dream had died, JMZ live, Myrtle and Broadway But I'd be glad to see Manhattan for once Living life in the city, it will never be pretty We can plan if we make it, we won't let them They won't take it from me, no Woo, woo Woo, woo And if you leave, don't leave me all alone Cause I'll be scared, I'll be naked, I'll get cold And I miss my dad, Cleopatra, sitting on the phone So take me back off these streets And we'll never be apart, together from the start Never, never falling back alone Living life in the city, it will never be pretty We can plan if we make it, we won't let them They won't take it from me, no Oh, oh, oh And if the sun don't shine on me today And if the subways flood and bridges break Will you just lay down and dig your grave? Or will you rail against your dying day? Na-na-na, na-na-na
