Walking down the park
When the lights are tight
When the air is prickly
And the day is far
She used to walk the neighborhood
With a six pack in her bag
A dirty sport's hat
And a backpack of dreams to give up
Here you go the lights go on
Another show another night long
Shining dresses and polished shoes
The crowd is gone
Lights on lights off
New York kicks' are so gross
Lighting sounds and honking cars
Welcome kids from all around
Getting off the M train
He looked well polished enough
Open tie and white shirt
Running like he had someone behind
Smell like noodles this kebab
While you pass through an Irish bar
See the crowd around that hole
There's a rat around the dump
Here you go the lights go on
Another show another night long
Shining dresses and polished shoes
The crowd is gone
Lights on lights off
New York kicks' are so gross
Lighting sounds and honking cars
Welcome kids from all around
Lights on lights off
New York kicks' are so gross
Lighting sounds and honking cars
Welcome kids from all around
Got the feeling that all is done
But the best is yet to come
