You called me last night on the telephone
And I was glad to hear from you 'cause I was all alone You said, "it's snowing, it's snowing! god, I hate this weather." Now I walk through blizzards just to get us back together We met in the springtime at a rock-and-roll show It was on the bowery when it was time to go We kissed on the subway in the middle of the night I held your hand, you held mine, it was the best night of my life. 'cause everyone's your friend in new york city And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see But the best thing about new york city is you and me Statue of liberty, staten island ferry, co-op city, katz's and tiffany's* Central park, brooklyn bridge, the empire state where dylan lived** Coney island and times square, rockefeller center Wish I was there You wrote me a letter just the other day Said, "springtime is coming soon so why don't you come to stay." I packed my stuff, got on the bus, I can't believe it's true I'm three days from new york city and I'm three days from you 'cause everyone's my friend in new york city And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see But the best thing about new york city is you and me 'cause everyone's my friend in new york city And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see But the best thing about new york city is you and me. |

This is where the party ends
I can't stand here listening to you And your racist friend I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you And your racist friend It was the loveliest party that I've ever attended If anything was broken I'm sure it could be mended My head can't tolerate this bobbing and pretending Listen to some bullet-head and the madness that he's saying This is where the party ends I'll just sit here wondering how you Can stand by your racist friend I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you You and your racist friend This is where the party ends I can't stand here listening to you And your racist friend I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you And your racist friend Out from the kitchen to the bedroom to the hallway Your friend apologizes, he could see it my way He let the contents of the bottle do the thinking Can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding This is where the party ends I can't stand here listening to you And your racist friend I know politics bore you But I feel like a hypocrite talking to you And your racist friend |
