New York, New York
(专辑: The Message - 1982)
[Melle Mel:] Ah New York New York big city of dreams And everything in New York ain't always what it seems You might get fooled if you come from out of town But I'm down by law and I
know my way around, too much Ah too many people, too much a
ha hah Too much, too many people, too much, rrrrrrrah! A
castle in the
sky, one mile high Built to shelter the
rich and greedy Rows of eyes, disguised as windows Lookin down on the
poor and the
needy Miles of people, marchin up the
avenue Doin what they gotta do, just to get by I'm livin in the
land of plenty and many But I'm damn sure poor and I
don't know why Too much, ah too many people, too much Too much, too many people, too much! [Duke Bootee:] A
man's on a
ledge, says he's gonna jump People gather round, said, "He won't he's just a
chump" Cause he lost his job, then he got robbed His mortgage is due and his marriage is through He says he ain't gonna pay no child support Because the
bitch left him without a
second thought He got nothin to eat, no shoes on his feet She even left his clothes, out in the
street He keeps hearin noises when he's at home He always hears voices when he's all alone His wife took the
kids, the
car and the
crib In this man's world, so much for women's lib New York New York big city of dreams But everything in New York ain't always what it seems You might get fooled if you come from out of town But I'm down by law, and I
know my way around Down in the
Village, you might think I'm silly But you can't tell the
women from the
men sometimes They're sugar and spice and everything nice But when you get em home ain't no tellin what you find Right next door is a
little old man I
seen him eatin dog food out of a
can He says, "I got to eat, when I
can't afford meat I
barely can stand, on my own two feet" I
got a
bad habit and I
just can't break it Somethin's on my mind and I
just can't shake it I
need some time, and I
want some space I
gotta get away from the
human race [Melle Mel:] Too much, ah too many people, too much... a-ha hah Too much, ah too many people, too much! Rrrrrrrah! Stand at a
skyscraper reachin into heaven When over in the
ghetto I'm livin in hell Just play ball or be an entertainer Cause niggas like me can't read too well Nobody loves me, nobody cares I
dreamed about a
life but I'm livin in a
nightmare Paranoid schitzo, set back, snowbound Bad news psycho, heart attack, breakdown! If only I
could sleep just ten more minutes I
might find the
strength to make another day If I
didn't have to get up, and do my thing I
would probably sleep my whole life away I
messed up a
nice dream, somethin bout ice cream Whipped cream fruits and a
cherry on top Now I
gotta get up and face the
world, huh The
pressure is on it ain't never gonna stop I
sho' gotta learn to use my mind I
don't wanna be kissin nobody's behind Just standin on line lookin like a
jerk Gotta get off my butt and do a
full day's work I
ran into a
pothole, got into a
car crash Shoulda been thinkin and tried to fake whiplash A
crowd gathered round, they're callin me fat Who you lookin at wit a
face like that? New York New York big city of dreams Everything in New York ain't always what it seems You might get fooled if you come from out of town But I'm down by law and I
know my way around On 42nd Street, lookin for some action Women standin on the
corner sellin satisfaction One young punk just leanin on the
fence Tryin to make a
dollar out of fifteen cents Really is a
prankster, tried to be a
gangster Real big wheel when a
gun is in his hands Just did a
stick-up, just got picked up One dead punk, killed by the
man New York New York big city of dreams And everything in New York ain't always what it seem You might get fooled if you come from out of town But I'm down by law and I
know my way around Too much, too many people, too much... ah ha hah hah Too much, too many people, too much! HUAHH! A
baby cries and a
mother dies And the
tears fall from the
doctor's eyes because In this room, on this day The
Good Lord has giveth, and taketh away, huh The
gift of life really means a
lot And in the
ghetto your life is all you got So you take to the
streets, tryin to exist In the
trash and slime of a
world like this What you watch, on TV A
tells you what life is supposed to be But when you look outside the
only thing you see Is the
poverty stricken, reality, heh Abandoned places, angry faces Much hate and hunger throughout the
races You say, "I'm grown and I'm on my own So why don't everybody just leave me alone!" Now you stay at home, talkin on the
phone Doin ninety miles an hour in the
fifty mile zone They never took the
time to tell you bout sex So you had to learn about it in the
discotheques Nine months later, the
baby is there And the
nigga that did it said, "I don't care!" You don't have enough money to help feed two So you have to choose between the
baby and you The
sky was cryin, rain and hail When you put yo' baby in the
garbage pail Then you kissed the
kid and put down the
lid And you tried to forget what you just did, huh The
muffled screams of a
dyin baby Was enough to drive the
young mother crazy So she ran in the
rain tryin to ease the
pain Huh huh, and she drove herself insane New York New York big city of dreams But everything in New York ain't always what it seem You might get fooled if you come from out of town But I'm down by law and I
know my way around Ah too much, too many people, too much... ah ha hah hah Too much, too many people, too much! HUHHH! New York New York big city of dreams But everything in New York ain't always what it seems You might get fooled if you come from out of town But I'm down by law and I
know my way around Too much, too many people, too much... ha hah hah hah Too much, too many people, too much
