Lyrics
New York City moves to the sound of L.A
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey, let's get right back to the basics
Every movement made up was useless
Same old shit with a brand new sound Write it off as progress? It's pointless
Not sure who you were in the 80s
Stole all of your ideas from other cities
Get it straight when you're upside-down
Things are looking stale; it's time to turn around
I was sick of the feeling
Sick of image and "sound"
Getting far without leaving
Thanks for letting me down
(Chorus): Wow I know That it's all been done before and will all be done again
So pick up the trends You dumb Americans
Now I know That it's all been done before and will all be done again
So pick up the trends
Burn it down and rip out the pages
The Kids are all right through the ages
Making sure that it works for now
Cut your hair and paint your stupid faces
Let's pretend that we can get together
Yeah, let's enjoy one another
Useless talking about that now
Everybody still likes to fuck around
Taking too long to catch up
Going back to the past
And things are moving much farther
To falling back on their ass
(Chorus) New York City loves to mess around With the L.A. Sound, the L.A. Sound!
(Chorus) (Ad-lib): Oh, come on swim!
