lyrics

Another closing time, another cigarette
Feeding a bad jazz habit and it ain't satisfied yet
Shake it up, break it down, New York City has its own sound
Shake it up, break it down, danger watching all around

Steam is rising, glimmering from the broken streetlight glass
It's the boulevard where the old priests sold salvation after midnight mass
Shake it up, break it down, New York City has its own sound
Shake it up, break it down, pleasure waiting all around

Say what? I couldn't quite hear you
You looking for something? Are you talking to me?
You better know what you want, and how to defend it
In New York City

Feel and hear the naked fear after the laughter stops
Take your pleasure where you can, terrorists on every block
Shake it up, break it down, New York City has its own sound
It ain't over, it don't end, New York City's born again

Say what? I couldn't quite hear you
You looking for something? Are you talking to me?
You better know what you want, and how to defend it
In New York City

The hunger's always palpable, the memories bittersweet
There's endless possibilities, the city seeks fresh meat
Did she fall or was she pushed? Somebody call CSI
Just another dream denied, just another sidewalk chalk line
Desperation, stick ht, the wrong word starts a fight
Lust and crime in equal measure, it's the concrete jungle on a summer's night

What? I couldn't quite hear you
You looking for something? Are you talking to me?
Say what? I couldn't quite hear you
You looking for something? Are you talking to me?
You better know what you want, and how to defend it
In New York City
