[00:34.38]Ginger elvis presley looked a fraction sad
[00:37.40]Roaming the whole town from bin to bin
[00:43.96]Well living on the streets wasnt all that bad
[00:47.09]Where no-one seemed to know that he was king
[00:52.96]The sound of new york city
[00:55.52]Isnt police sirens wailing
[00:58.21]Its the sound of wall street tills
[01:00.46]Whilst everyone is failing
[01:03.02]Sometimes you feel expensive
[01:07.34]Sometimes you feels so cheap
[01:09.46]You can roam the streets a king
[01:12.59]Whilst everyones asleep
[01:14.53]You can mime to any record
[01:17.40]With a hairbrush or a spoon
[01:20.09]But God help the singer out of tune
[01:25.40]A crippled mohammad ali
[01:36.96]Looked at bad luck in the mirror
[01:39.09]Bad luck looked back at him and sighed
[01:45.15]He looked a good foot smaller
[01:46.84]And a couple of stone thinner
[01:49.15]And if anyone came toward him
[01:51.28]He would hide
[01:53.22]The sound of north america
[01:55.65]Isnt christians quietly praying
[01:58.72]Its the sound of shuffling feet
[02:01.28]That dont know where theyre going
[02:05.78]Sometimes you feel expensive
[02:08.22]Sometimes you feels so cheap
[02:10.47]You can roam the streets a king
[02:13.47]Whilst everyones asleep
[02:15.34]You can fight with anybody
[02:18.03]With a glimmer of a chance
[02:20.53]But God help the boxer with no hands
[02:26.66]A homeless greta garbo
[02:37.66]Moves across the street
[02:38.97]The moonlight shining clearly
[02:41.72]Through her skirt
[02:45.78]A real life living legend
[02:47.59]That no-one wants to meet
[02:50.47]And thats when being garbo
[02:52.09]Really hurts
[02:55.47]The lyrics of new york
[02:56.97]May have frank sinatra singing
[02:59.85]But the rhythm and the melody
[03:02.15]Were dead black men swinging
[03:04.72]Sometimes you feel expensive
[03:08.66]Sometimes you feels so cheap
[03:11.10]You can roam the streets a queen
[03:14.47]Whilst everyones asleep
[03:16.54]You can act with anybody
[03:18.16]From the cradle to the crypt
[03:21.54]But God help the actress
[03:23.66]Who doesnt know the script
