[al:If You Don't Like It, You Can Leave]
[00:19.02]Packing my bags into a car
[00:22.00]Heading to East L.A.
[00:25.05]Nothing but sun up in the sky
[00:28.04]But it's just not the same
[00:31.08]Not like the time you left me in stranded in the Bronx
[00:37.05]4 in the morning, couldn't get a cab to stop
[00:43.16]Walking out in the cold, it hurt me just to breathe
[00:48.51]New York, I love it when you're mean
[00:53.61]When you're mean to me
[01:01.76]Break out the shorts, Go to the gym
[01:04.28]Nobody wears long sleeves
[01:07.32]People are tan, sculpted and thin
[01:10.40]Straight outta magazines
[01:13.44]Not like the 7 train on a Monday after 5
[01:19.42]Knocking old ladies down to make it home alive
[01:25.48]Stuck in the subway like a can of sardines
[01:30.69]New York, I love it when you're mean
[01:35.65]Can't believe I never stopped to notice the million little lights
[01:42.63]Inside of each one is somebody's little life
[01:49.20]Who's in need of stars when you got all these apartments lighting up the night?
[01:57.60]I never seen it shine so bright
[02:13.72]Some other cities may be easy on the eyes
[02:19.79]You see yourself living there, happy till you die
[02:25.20]But give it to me real, I don't wanna live in a dream
[02:31.31]New York, I love it when you're mean
[02:37.38]New York, it's exactly as it seems
[02:43.39]New York, you don't like it you can leave
[02:49.34]New York, you don't know what it means when you're mean to me
