New Dorp. New York (feat. Ezra Koenig) Lyrics

My girl's got a minimum
Keep it stuck right there 'til the lumber comes
Leave a smooth operator lookin' like a bum
My girl's got a city to run
Got the key to the kingdom where the money's from
Never seen calienda, never seen the sun
(And he thinks I'm the negative one)

Flag flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock

Flag flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock

My girl's got a little schtick
Keep your coat up in the kitchen while you feed the kids
Keep your waitin' in the winter while the tension ticks
My girl got a limousine
Got a full time job just to keep it clean
Got a speaker in the trunk; you know where it's done
(You think I'm the negative one)

Flag flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock

Flag flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock

New Dorp New York
New Dorp New York

Late nights and black Israelites
White women singing under dying the lights
Baseball bats that never hit home runs

Late nights and black Israelites
White women singing under dying the lights
Baseball bats that never hit home runs

I got a baseball bat, never hit home runs

My girl's got a minimum
Keep it stuck right there 'til the lumber comes
Leave a smooth operator lookin' like a bum
My girl's got a city to run
Got the key to the kingdom where the money's from
Never seen calienda, never seen the sun
(And he thinks I'm the negative one)

New Dorp New York
New Dorp New York

Flag flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock

Flag flappin' in Manhattan
New Dorp New York
Gargoyles gargling oil
Peak of the empire, top of the rock

My girl's got a little schtick
Keep your coat up in the kitchen while you feed the kids
Keep your waitin' in the winter while the tension ticks
My girl got a limousine
Got a full time job just to keep it clean
Got a speaker in the trunk; you know where it's done
(You think I'm the negative one)

My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
My girl's got a city to run
