Lyrics - Nyc Man by Reed Lou

It can only lead to trouble if you break my heart
If you accidentally crush it on the ides of
March
I'd prefer you were straight forward
You don't have to go through all of that
I'm a
New
York city man, baby
Say "go" and that is that
New
York city man, you just say "go" and that is that
I'm a
New
York city man, you just say "go" and that is that
It's far too complicated to make up a lie
That you'd have to remember and really why
I wouldn't want to be around you
If you don't want to have me around
I'm a
M-
A-
N-
N man
Slink your eyes and
I'll gone
I'm a
M-
A-
N-
N man, slink your eyes, honey,
I love you, and
I'll gone
New
York city man, slink your eyes and
I'll gone
Brutus made a pretty speech but
Caesar was betrayed
Lady
Macbeth went crazy but
Macbeth ended slain
Ophelia and
Desdamona dead leaving
Hamlet in a play
But
I'm no
Lear with blinded eyes
Say " go " and
I am gone
The stars have shut their eyes up tight
The earth has changed it's course
A
Kingdom sits on a black knight's back
As he tries to mount a white jeweled horse
While a clock full of butterflies on the hour
Releases a thousand moths
You say " leave" and
I'll be gone
Without any remorse
No letters faxes phones or tears
There's a difference between
Bad and worse
I'm a
New
York city man, blink your eyes and
I'll be gone
New
York city - man, blink your eyes and
I'll be gone
New
York city,
I love you,
New
York city man
New
York city,
I love you, blink your eyes and
I'll be gone
Just a little grain of sand
New
York city, ooohhh,
I love you
New
York city, baby, blink your eyes and
I'll be gone
I love you
