New York City
A coming attraction
But
Will you hold a mirror
To all of my attractions

New York City
An urban rock tumbler
But
Will you polish
The desires of my heart

New York City
A hole in the wall
Where I can finally be lost
And found
In an undisclosed location

New York City
Tall building
Small building
I'm sure I can find my name somewhere
Painted on the wall

New York City
Slapping the pavement
With a honk from the horn
Crashing the soundboard
Like water's edge at Niagara

New York City
In some small place now
Holding you, in the fetish of my arms
I wonder if all the commotion
Will yet ring true in my ears

New York City
Meks stomp
East coast rap
A Broadway romp
Start spreading the news
