Let it climb and drop an apple off the top
What New York used to be
You feed it, don't believe it
Force and feed it, leave it, be it
And what city used to be
What New York used to be
You swing your mile longer
And wonder
What drugs used to be
What New York used to be
Tell me, come, come on
And what fast used to be
What TV used to be
What easy used to be
What luck used to be
Then you stretched your mouth
Call me, come, come, come on
Just leave it in this box
It's not I don't want to eat it
And what dreaming used to be
What love used to be
Just keep it in this box
Whether you're gonna grasp that
And what fame used to be
What art used to be
And what fun used to be
Tell me how much better
What easy used to be
Water, shot of ecstasy
And what low used to be
Need it, know it
What New York used to be
What music used to be
Come on drama, come on, girl
What you used to be
Love song surely tells the future
Say it, make it to the bottom
Secrets in the open bottle
What New York used to be
