[Intro: Neil Tennant]
"Good evening, Glaston!"
[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
When you're a boy
Some days are tough
Lying on your bed
Playing punk rock and stuff
Home is a boot camp
You gotta escape
Want to go and wander
In the ticker-tape
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You feel the deal is real
You're a New York City boy
So young, so run
Into New York City
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
New York City Boy
You'll never have a bored day
'Cause you're a New York City Boy
Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
[Verse 2: Neil Tennant]
The street is amazing
The hoochies unreal
Check out all the hardware
At the latеst deal
Hear a song
That's the bomb!
If you don't gеt the mix
It's gone eighty-six
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You feel the deal is real
You're in New York City
So young, so run
Into New York City
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
New York City Boy
You'll never have a bored day
'Cause you're a New York City Boy
Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
[Interlude: Neil Tennant]
"Here we go!"
"Oh yeah!"
"Let me see you moving out there!"
"It''s just a little bit of disco!"
"This is the good lex"
"And now we go back to the chorus"
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
New York City Boy
You'll never have a bored day
'Cause you're a New York City Boy
Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
[Chorus 2: Neil Tennant]
New York City Boy
This is your reward day
'Cause you're a New York City Boy
Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
[Outro: Neil Tennant]
"Thank you very much"
"Good evening, Glaston!"
[Verse 1: Neil Tennant]
When you're a boy
Some days are tough
Lying on your bed
Playing punk rock and stuff
Home is a boot camp
You gotta escape
Want to go and wander
In the ticker-tape
[Pre-Chorus: Neil Tennant]
You feel the deal is real
You're a New York City boy
So young, so run
Into New York City
[Chorus 1: Neil Tennant]
New York City Boy
You'll never have a bored day
'Cause you're a New York City Boy
Where Seventh Avenue meets Broadway
