NYC (Devil's Playground) Lyrics

Album: Antihero

You

You’re a two-time mother fucking punk to me

You’re a half-wit nothing

Backwoods mother that could never see

And you

You can come but there’s a price you pay

No wide-open spaces that time will replace

You gotta love the greed and the grime

Are you blind?

New York

Timeless city

New York

Devil’s Lair

Make sure your face is seen

When they come to claim the body there could be a scene

You get a ten-mile smile laced with nicotine

But that’s New York City

Hell no

No one dreams of being nothing man

Yu can wait for tomorrow

Kick it in the teeth, take what you demand

And you

You keep bitching ‘cause you fall behind

No God fearing fucker’s better than another

Welcome to the end of the line

Are you blind?

New York

Timeless city

New York

Devil’s Lair

Keep your fleas and your small town too

I kick the State Fair queen till she’s black and blue

I crack a gun toting fucker and his pickup too

I bleed New York City

Start spreading the news

I’m leaving today

New York

Timeless city

New York

Devil’s Lair

Look at you like you don’t exist

Dump you in the river and you’ll never be missed

You know you may get fucked but you won’t get kissed

In New York City
