I thought that I feel in love on a very magic night
When everyone that I loved had a very nasty fight
You were there for me and I held you in my arms
Some how we both felt safe, from the world and its harms
Of all the places I've been and all the things I've seen
I've never seen nothing expect for in a magazine
we fell asleep together and when I woke up from the nap
I turned on your CD so I could hear Ice Cube rap
West Side, East Side, all around the town
We're gonna make a little magic when the sun starts going down
I wax the didatic and me and mammy o'rourke
are gonna trip the light fantastic on the sidewalks of new york
I'll sing you a love song for the love that should have been
I'll sing about the sickness that took the sweet life of a friend
I'll sing about American just like Mr. Huges before
I'll sing about the Victors and the Soilders of My War
Nevermind the bollocks because my thoughts are here to stay
Nevermind the buzzcock because I can't come out to play
Nevermind what's normal or what others lable strange
Nevermind the discord, nothing's out of my range
I'll travel the world and tell you all I see
I'll travel to your homeland if you will wait there for me
I'll walk around the country and when I feel the devil's fork
We'll take a walk together on the sidewalks of New York
I'll travel every road and on the streets where you live
I'll give you all that I can, but there's nothing left to give
Nevermind the madness that is spewing from my mouth
I'll take a shower in New Jersey, I got dirty in the south
Maybe I'll play the love game and maybe this time I'll win
If not I'll just lurk late and inspire Gwyndelion
If I was the savior, then could I eat beef or pork?
I preach the balance of salvation on the sidewalks of New York
