Downtown Fever

I could be anybody
I could do anything
'Cause the city's all mine
And I'm taking my time
Took the first train
Grand Central Station
'Cause it's my song that they're playing
Walking down Fifth Avenue
In every store, this is what I gotta do
Gotta spend more
Hop in a Yellow Cab
Take me to a new life
Take me to the jazz club
We can play music all night
Make me fall in love
With the shine of a spotlight

I lose my mind, every night
When the downtown fever hits me
I find myself underneath the lights
Feel the downtown fever catch me

Designer clothes on my back, microphone in hand
Feel the dream come true while I play with the band Finish my shift at two AM
And then come home to my biggest fan Spend my cash on a new pair of shoes
Grab a taxi downtown, blow the rest on food City lights: surrogate stars some nights Shining sprites showing civilization's fight Imagine living the high life
Condo next to Central Park
The beat of the city keeps me at night
And the bass guitar gives me that spark
I wanna live like I run the world
I just need some keys and my favorite girl
I promise we can make you all believers
It's high time to catch the fever

I lose my mind, every night
When the downtown fever hits me
I find myself underneath the lights
Feel the downtown fever catch me

I lose my mind, every night
When the downtown fever hits me
I find myself underneath the lights
Feel the downtown fever catch me
