Why Ny?

Why NY?

Why do we live in New York?
It's dirty, it's cold, and we're broke
The subway is some kind of joke
So why do we live in New York?

Why do we live in New York?
We can hardly afford to go out
And the fun spots are all shutting down
As the yuppies take over the town

Why do we live in New York?
California is sunny and warm
And life was so easy before
We decided to move to New York

You spend the whole day on your feet
As cars whizz by you on the street
You walk and you walk and you walk
Through endless crowded city blocks

And everything costs twice as much
Except pizza, that's only a buck
Then again it might make you upchuck
On the train when you've run out of luck

Why do we live in New York?
It's true the rent is too damn high
Things you see just make you want to cry
You struggle now just to get by.

It'll be under water soon
But hey whatcha gonna do?
We can see by the neon moon
And enjoy a week of nice weather in June.

And everyone's walking too fast
Pushing and shoving right past
This whole city just smells like ass
It's all just too much fun to last.

So why do we live in New York?
We must all be insane
I think you can damage your brain
By living too long in New York.
