Hey
Lightning strikes in old New York
It may be dark but I wanna talk
It might rain, and it might snow
Too many things that I got to know
If this is spring then it's time to sing
Never mind the lil' birdies wing
Look out, look out, old New York
New York's coming now
Hey, strike! Not once
Strike! But twice
Get out your money, peel a slab
Roll some notes an' hail a cab
Drive down Seventh in a tank
Drive in church drive in back
Take in the sights, feel the breeze
See New York's one and only tree
It can be found in Garbage park
But don't inspect it after dark
Strike! New York! Lightning!
Not once but twice
Accidental hike in the transit strike
Roller skate or ride a bike
Three to a car, Brooklyn Bridge
You won't get far if you're privileged
Graffiti Jack sprays in black
An Englishman, can he read it back?
Deli Joe he ought to know
He runs the gang on Pastrami
Strike!
Lightning
Strike!
Strike!
Strike!
Lightning
Strike!
Lightning
Lightning strikin'
Flash
Lightning strikin'
Hey ho, such a night
I'll see y'all when the lightning strike
A polaroid caught in the act
You're married too and that's a fact
But I won't peek and I won't squeak
Down by the trucks on Christopher Street
It's Cuban Day, Oi Vey
Chinese New Year let's call it a day
Strike!
Lightning
Strike!
Strike!
