《Manhattan Avenue(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Manhattan Avenue - Nellie McKay

[00:00:24] Send a breeze

[00:00:27] A pitbull's yelp

[00:00:31] A tender squeeze

[00:00:34] A cry for help

[00:00:37] Make it now

[00:00:38] And make it fast

[00:00:39] Such memories

[00:00:39] Can never last

[00:00:43] I long for the days

[00:00:47] Music and mayhem

[00:00:49] Mama's a smilin' friend

[00:00:55] In the scuzzy hue of the sunlight

[00:01:00] Manhattan avenue

[00:01:10] Lionel please

[00:01:13] Watch o'er our door

[00:01:16] The children tease

[00:01:19] I beg for more

[00:01:23] Chipping paint

[00:01:26] The ceiling's spent

[00:01:29] Aw ain't it great

[00:01:33] Can't make the rent

[00:01:36] I long for the days

[00:01:39] Kittens are meowling

[00:01:43] Junkies are prowling

[00:01:47] Deep in the jazzy hue of the streetlight

[00:01:52] Manhattan avenue

[00:01:56] [instrumental break

[00:02:52] How wild it is

[00:02:55] What strange a vice

[00:02:58] That a mugger and a child should share the same paradise

[00:03:06] Oh but dreams come true on

[00:03:09] Manhattan avenue
