big rude jake - gotham city serenade lyrics
[verse 1]
bearing a cross in a jerk-water ‘burg
where the fact of the matter takes a turn for the worst
and getting out of bed is too much work
when you’re dead wide awake and you don’t care
[verse 2]
when mike the spike came into sight
after sh-gging a rose down in brooklyn heights
he’s says the big town is gonna wail tonight
and don’t you know that i’m gonna be there
[chorus]
i wish you could be here with me
on this night in new york city
i wish you were standing here
as broadway opens up her arms
when the crimson skyline bruises black
and lights up like a favorite song
i wish you could be here with me
on this night in new york city
[verse 3]
and in the project homes in bedford stuy
some sevens flights into the sky
a sweet young thing talks to her guy
with one leg on the windowsill
[verse 4]
she says, they might give you accolades
and they might play at lawn croquet
in beatnik shades of pigeon gray
but they won’t love you like i will…
and she says..
[chorus]
[verse 5]
the geronimo kid was the new st. george
with a gibson guitar for a rapier sword
drove a cutl-ss supreme to the rockaway sh0r-
slew a hep-cat dragon, jammin’ on the beach
[verse 6]
and the pork-pied-piper blew that song
and the jericho walls came a-tumblin’ down
and the rats -ssembled in the middle of the town
and they danced into the shadows and right out of reach
[chorus] x2
