Strike

Strike

Hey

Lightning strikes in old New York

It may be dark but I wanna talk

It might rain, and it might snow

Too many things that I got to know

If this is spring then it's time to sing

Never mind the lil' birdies wing

Look out, look out, old New York

New York's coming now

Hey, strike! Not once

Strike! But twice

Get out your money, peel a slab

Roll some notes an' hail a cab

Drive down Seventh in a tank

Drive in church drive in back

Take in the sights, feel the breeze

See New York's one and only tree

It can be found in Garbage park

But don't inspect it after dark

Strike! New York! Lightning!

Not once but twice

Accidental hike in the transit strike

Roller skate or ride a bike

Three to a car, Brooklyn Bridge

You won't get far if you're privileged

Graffiti Jack sprays in black

An Englishman, can he read it back?

Deli Joe he ought to know

He runs the gang on Pastrami

Strike!

Lightning

Strike!

Strike!

Strike!

Lightning

Strike!

Lightning

Lightning strikin'

Flash

Lightning strikin'

Hey ho, such a night

I'll see y'all when the lightning strike

A polaroid caught in the act

You're married too and that's a fact

But I won't peek and I won't squeak

Down by the trucks on Christopher Street

It's Cuban Day, Oi Vey

Chinese New Year let's call it a day

Strike!

Lightning

Strike!

Strike!
