I wish I was in New York, but I'm not
I wish I had a dream that could be taught
I tried to get away, I just got caught
Oh, I wish I was in New York, but I'm not
I wish that you would love me like a brand
I'd name all of the biggest words I can
I'm down in Philadelphia, smoking pot
Oh, I wish I was in New York, but I'm not
If the light can find me, it'll find you again
You gotta get up and assess the time you spend
Making lists of things, and getting rid of friends
Is there much time left, I'll take whatever's next
