Various Artists - NEW DORP. NEW YORK. lyrics

[Verse 1: Ezra Koenig (SBTRKT)] My girl got a minimum Keep it stuck right there 'til the number comes Leave a smooth operator lookin' like a bum My girl's got a city to run Got the key to the kingdom where the money's from Never seen the color yellow, never seen the sun (And he thinks I'm the negative one) [Chorus: SBTRKT ] Flags flappin' in Manhattan New Dorp, New York Gargoyles gargling oil Peak of the empire, top of the rock Flags flappin' in Manhattan New Dorp, New York Gargoyles gargling oil Peak of the empire, top of the rock [Verse 2: Ezra Koenig (SBTRKT)] My girl's got a little schtick Keep you cooped up in the kitchen while you feed the kid Keep you waitin' in the winter while the taxi ticks My girl got a limousine Got a full time job just to keep it clean Got a speaker in the trunk, you know it weighs a ton (You think I'm the negative one) [Chorus-SBTRKT] Flags flappin' in Manhattan New Dorp, New York Gargoyles gargling oil Peak of the empire, top of the rock Flags flappin' in Manhattan New Dorp, New York Gargoyles gargling oil Peak of the empire, top of the rock [Interlude: Ezra Koenig] New Dorp, New York New Dorp, New York [Bridge: SBTRKT] Late nights and black Israelites White women singing under diner lights Baseball bats that never hit home runs Late nights, with Black Israelites White women singing under dying the lights The baseball bats never hit homeruns [Ezra Koenig] I got a baseball bat, never hit home runs [Verse 1: Ezra Koenig (SBTRKT)] My girl got a minimum Keep stuck right there 'til the number comes Leave the smooth operator lookin' like a bum My girl's got a city to run Got the key to the kingdom where the money's from Never seen the color yellow never seen the sun And he thinks I'm the negative one? [Interlude: Ezra Koenig] New Dorp, New York New Dorp, New York [Chorus: SBTRKT ] Flags flappin' in Manhattan New Dorp, New York Gargoyles gargling oil Peak of the empire, top of the rock Flags flappin' in Manhattan New Dorp, New York Gargoyles gargling oil Peak of the empire, top of the rock [Verse 2: Ezra Koenig (SBTRKT)] My girl's got a little schtick Keep it cooking in the kitchen, while feeding the kid Keep you waiting in the window while the time just ticks My girl got a limousine, got a full time job just to keep it clean Got the speakers in the trunk, know the ways to talk And you think I'm the negative one? [Outro: Ezra Koenig] My girl's got a city to run My girl's got a city to run My girl's got a city to run My girl's got a city to run My girl's got a city to run
