Big Ben

It's 93 on a busy street
We moved our feet through the rising steam
Like a post card scene
When we went rolling in Brooklyn

Where the boys don't shave
Everyone has a mixtape, making bedroom beats on their MPC
We came across the sea
When we went rolling in Brooklyn

Ooh! I haven't painted my nails
Now you know that I'm foreign
Foreign
Soon I'll set up my sails and return
To the other side of the road, but
It's been fun to pretend
You're still my baby Big Ben

11:43 and it's New Year's Eve
My girls and miss
Don't know where to be
And the line runs all the way around the Hudson

And this is the moment
That we had to own it
It's all in slow motion
We should not un-rush it
It's up with our coast
And we don't stop walking
Behind the rope
Everyone's watching
(Fuck, how do we live?)

I say I'm friend with the DJ
And right now she needs me
Then, the bouncer believes me
It's almost too easy here, yeah
NYC you've got that energy
Like a go all night boyfriend, but

Ooh! I haven't painted my nails
Now you know that I'm foreign
Foreign
Soon I'll set up my sails and return to the other side of the road
To a charming gentleman
You're my everything
Where all iconic bands began
You're still my baby Big Ben...
