lirik lagu casey dienel – better in manhattan
[verse 1]
putting on my lipstick
i know it’s gonna get me tips
stepping into costume
so i can give my patrons kicks
step outside for a cigarette
and it’s starting to snow
every time it gets cold
i begin to think of you
[refrain]
hold on a minute
they’re calling me
sugar sugar sugar, come here
dance a little closer
i can almost feel you
sugar sugar, come here
you’re all i got to keep me warm
[verse 2]
admittedly it’s cliché
but i’m still writing you letters
my room here is cozy and sp-rs-
and decorated with posters of big sur
i’ve never been there
but i want you to take me
though i think paradise is a place you visit
and not a place you live
[chorus]
that’s why
everything is better in manhattan
oh, people aren’t hungry
they are starving in manhattan
and the buildings are tall
and the sky is something you search for
in manhattan
[verse 3]
oh, in my spare time
i’m making a garden on my fire escape
i can’t wait to watch my seedlings
find the sun
it won’t be easy
cause nothing ever is
that’s why
everything tastes so good
[verse 4]
so, my love
i’ve got all my ropes and chains
i’m gonna give them to you
for your birthday
you can do with them what you want
but i hope you’re gonna tie me up
you can do with them what you want
but i hope you’re gonna tie me up and sing
[refrain]
oh
sugar sugar sugar, come here
dance a little closer
i can almost feel you
sugar sugar, come here
you’re all i got to keep me warm
sugar sugar, come here
oh, i can almost taste you
i’m gonna put you out on the street
and watch you grow
in the concrete
[verse 4]
oh, my love
this time you’ve gone too far
how many times
must i repeat myself?
i love you
there! i said it
and i meant it
oh, i love you
there! i said it
and i meant every word
i love you
there! i said it
now will you take it
or will you put it out on the street
and watch it grow
in the concrete
[chorus]
everything is better in manhattan
oh, the spoons aren’t silver
they’re gold in manhattan
and the buildings are tall
and the sky is something you reach for
[outro]
in manhattan
ooh
in manhattan
ooh
in manhattan
in manhattan
