The first to put a simple truth in words

Binds the world in a feeling all familiar

'Cause everybody owns the great ideas

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

A tenner up and out into New York

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers

And oh my giddy aunt New York can talk

It's the modern Rome and folk are nice to Yoko

Every bone of rivet steel

Each corner stone an ankle

Jenga jutts and rusted water tower

Pillar-posted sign

Every painted line and battered

Laddered building in this town

Sings a life of proud endeavor

At the best that man can be

Me I see a city and I hear a million voices

Planning drilling welding

Carrying their fingers to the nub

Reaching down into the ground

Stretching up into the sky

Why

Because they can

They did and do so you and I could live together

Oh my god New York can talk

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers

Everybody owns the great ideas

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

Oh my god New York can talk

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers

Everybody owns the great ideas

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

Oh my god New York can talk

Somewhere in all that talk is all the answers

Everybody owns the great ideas

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

The design in a patchwork symphony

The desire like a distant storm

For love did it come for me

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

The design in a patchwork symphony

The desire like a distant storm

For love did it come for me

And it feels like there's a big one round the corner

The way the day begins

Decides the shade of everything

But the way it ends depends on if you're home

For every soul a pillow at a window please

In a modern Rome where folk are nice to Yoko
