New York City Girls
I see her smoking
on the front steps at midnight
cherry red eyeliner
sharp enough to slash a guy
she dresses dark
so the men will f*ck off
I bet words flow off her tongue
like honey and bombs
Wish I could be like the New York City girls
Casually cool, effortlessly pretty girls
Wish I could be like the New York City girls
Casually cool, oh so pretty girls
you laugh at the gigantic rat
dragging a pizza slice across the subway tracks
and I love how you dress like lady gaga
for your 8 am class
and you snuck your cat past your landlord
so he could sleep between us in our bed
baby, I just know you see a hundred
different universes in your head
you said you could read my future
if I told you my star sign
I dont believe in astrology
but I believe in that lopsided smile
and the way you wave your hands
when you talk about something you like
dreaming of kissing the New York City girls
Casually cool, effortlessly pretty girls
dreaming of kissing the New York City girls
Casually cool, oh so pretty girls
and i want you so badly, but you could be anyone
there's no one like her, but she could be anyone
and i want you so badly, but you could be anyone
there's no one like her, but she could be anyone
and i want you so badly, but you could be anyone
there's no one like her, but she could be anyone
damn I love them New York City girls
Casually cool, effortlessly pretty girls
damn I love them New York City girls
Casually cool, oh so pretty girls
