lirik lagu pulp musicals - for new york, for you!
[narrator, (chorus)]
chester thomas soon became the mayor of new york city
so popular and powerful (of course he was, of course he was)
benjamin park soon led the sun to greater heights than ever
the pioneer of printing house (of course he was, of course he was)
so much charisma between the two (so prestigious)
there was nothing that they could not do
so chester thomas soon became a new york state senator
from city hall to albany (of course he did, of course he did)
benjamin left the panic of ’37 in the dust (oh!)
his swagger and ingenuity (of course he did, of course he did)
this wondrous machine was run by two (chester and benjamin)
no, there was nothing that they could not do
for new york, for you
[thomas, (chorus)]
folks it’s 1845 and once again i am asking for your vote (vote senator chester thomas)
to send me back to washington d.c. (he’s capital)
think of all that we’ve accomplished in the time i was your mayor
you’ll realize there’s no one else more qualified out there (yeah!)
when midtown was burning, i passed stricter building codes (that’s right!)
our nation’s adding lots of states yet every road leads to new york (new york)
so i cleaned up the streets, founded the nypd
with your current mayor who endorses me (vote senator chester thomas)
that’s right! (vote senator chester thomas)
for new york, for you!
[benjamin, (chorus)]
readers, it’s 1845 and once again, he is asking for our vote (vote senator chester thomas)
for another term as senator (tell ’em, ben)
we are honored to endorse a gentleman of his caliber
(signed by benjamin park, the new york sun’s chief editor)
i have known this man for years and i have watched him grow (ooh)
the same way that our nation weathers all its highs and lows (let’s hear it)
he has earned my trust (woah)
electing him’s a must
for new york (new york, new york)
new york
[chorus]
new york
senator chester thomas
a man for the modern age
[thomas]
but why should we stop there
when i’ve got the pen
[benjamin]
and i’ve got the page
[chorus]
chester thomas and benjamin park
living out the american dream
[thomas]
you’re my right hand man
[benjamin]
we make a really good team
[chorus]

[thomas]

[chorus]

remember his campaign slogan
[benjamin & chester, (chorus)]
for new york, for you
(vote senator chester thomas)
(vote senator chester thomas)
(vote senator thomas)
for new york, for you!
[thomas, spoken]
they’ve called it, benjamin
[benjamin, spoken]
and?
[thomas, spoken]
it wasn’t even close
[benjamin, spoken]
(laughs) congratulations, senator!
[thomas, spoken]
i couldn’t have done it without you. say, do you have any of that good whiskey left? it’ll give us a boost before the party starts at city hall
[benjamin, spoken]
are you heading back to albany tomorrow?
[thomas, spoken]
no! no, too many commitments in the city. we will be going wednesday instead
[benjamin, spoken]
we?
[thomas, spoken]
tallmidge is resigning. got appointed governor to wisconsin territory. i’m going to need a new chief of staff
[benjamin, spoken]
me? but the sun?
[thomas, spoken]
we’ll figure it out. so, are you going to make a toast or not?
[benjamin, spoken]
(laughs) to albany
[thomas, spoken]
(laughs) pack light. ’cause we won’t be there long
[narrator, (chorus)]
somewhere between albany and washington
years pass (years pass)
rally and convention
campaign and election
like stations of a railway track
never backwards, time advances
and suddenly
[narrator & chorus]
vote chester thomas in the presidential election of 1852
[narrator]
printing house square is quiet as benjamin and thomas
stopped by their old office
a week after election night
[thomas, spoken]
i just don’t know why we haven’t heard anything from delaware yet
[benjamin, spoken]
in the past, it’s taken over a month for all the states’ election results to come in
[thomas, spoken]
all i’m saying is that ‘old fuss and feathers’ lost his home state of new jersey. if we’d have lost new york, i’d have been too embarrassed to continue. benjamin, what’s the matter?
[benjamin, spoken]
just a little nostalgic
[thomas, spoken]
you are on the verge of becoming vice president elect of the united states and you look as bad as you did that time you got hit in the face with a printing press plate
[benjamin, spoken]
i wish i was still 27
[thomas, spoken]
i’m thinking of them too
