| [00:01.00] | 作词 : Heaton, Rotheray |
| [00:34.38] | Ginger elvis presley looked a fraction sad |
| [00:37.40] | Roaming the whole town from bin to bin |
| [00:43.96] | Well living on the streets wasnt all that bad |
| [00:47.09] | Where no-one seemed to know that he was king |
| [00:52.96] | The sound of new york city |
| [00:55.52] | Isnt police sirens wailing |
| [00:58.21] | Its the sound of wall street tills |
| [01:00.46] | Whilst everyone is failing |
| [01:03.02] | Sometimes you feel expensive |
| [01:07.34] | Sometimes you feels so cheap |
| [01:09.46] | You can roam the streets a king |
| [01:12.59] | Whilst everyones asleep |
| [01:14.53] | You can mime to any record |
| [01:17.40] | With a hairbrush or a spoon |
| [01:20.09] | But God help the singer out of tune |
| [01:25.40] | A crippled mohammad ali |
| [01:36.96] | Looked at bad luck in the mirror |
| [01:39.09] | Bad luck looked back at him and sighed |
| [01:45.15] | He looked a good foot smaller |
| [01:46.84] | And a couple of stone thinner |
| [01:49.15] | And if anyone came toward him |
| [01:51.28] | He would hide |
| [01:53.22] | The sound of north america |
| [01:55.65] | Isnt christians quietly praying |
| [01:58.72] | Its the sound of shuffling feet |
| [02:01.28] | That dont know where theyre going |
| [02:05.78] | Sometimes you feel expensive |
| [02:08.22] | Sometimes you feels so cheap |
| [02:10.47] | You can roam the streets a king |
| [02:13.47] | Whilst everyones asleep |
| [02:15.34] | You can fight with anybody |
| [02:18.03] | With a glimmer of a chance |
| [02:20.53] | But God help the boxer with no hands |
| [02:26.66] | A homeless greta garbo |
| [02:37.66] | Moves across the street |
| [02:38.97] | The moonlight shining clearly |
| [02:41.72] | Through her skirt |
| [02:45.78] | A real life living legend |
| [02:47.59] | That no-one wants to meet |
| [02:50.47] | And thats when being garbo |
| [02:52.09] | Really hurts |
| [02:55.47] | The lyrics of new york |
| [02:56.97] | May have frank sinatra singing |
| [02:59.85] | But the rhythm and the melody |
| [03:02.15] | Were dead black men swinging |
| [03:04.72] | Sometimes you feel expensive |
| [03:08.66] | Sometimes you feels so cheap |
| [03:11.10] | You can roam the streets a queen |
| [03:14.47] | Whilst everyones asleep |
| [03:16.54] | You can act with anybody |
| [03:18.16] | From the cradle to the crypt |
| [03:21.54] | But God help the actress |
| [03:23.66] | Who doesnt know the script |
