It's a revolution, it’s a civilian revenge.
There's no need to move or adjust your television
Whenever an era dies, another era begins!
These American fights, these American wars,
These American stripes, these American stars,
But these American cages have American bars
We hunted for truth so we headed for y'all.
Towers are crumbling, bridges are falling,
Limits are fading, the normal is boring,
Looking at time move progressively forward
Looking the days just vanish before me.
You wanted a Benz but you couldn't afford it,
Now you were killed to put your foot in the tourist
It's a different madness and never look backwards
But this is the crisis, prepare for disaster!
[Chorus:]
Start spreading the news,
I'm leaving today!
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York,
New York!
Breaker breaker 9 breaker breaker 1 9
Could you please get an operator on the phone line?
This is not a riot it's way much more than that,
These people are dying we are under attack!
Wait let me call you back, let me get my stack
Cause we ain't taking shit so therefore we'll fight them back
We ain't waiting on the line for a 9 1 1 9 9
Whatever man I ain't got time for all this nonsense.
Enemy responses ain't a dial tone in our home on the continent
Got me in these bandages...
Man I swear they sleeping, they unconscious or they slumbering
So we break the peace to get a piece of what we wanted
Act like we’re new to this, like we can run with it.
Let them know we run this shit
And let them know just how you feel the way your country is
Now look how beautiful destruction is
Bang!
[Chorus:]
Start spreading the news
I'm leaving today!
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York
New York!
