See me silently quietly creep, I am too amped up to sleep lamp rays shining down, street lamps make the bussing sound subway creaking down, below garbage piled up and ready to go.
Lock the windows the gates on taxi in the distance coming along, stalking the streets till the break of day, New York beauty take my breath away near some cats but dog's don't bark, cool cats strolling after dark.
Watch the, watch the way I walk, can't you think my movements talk, watch the watch, the way I walk, can't you think my movements talk. Shaky lock and kicky door, smokey air that I adore, down in the alley is where I hunt all is quiet on the eastern front, stalking the streets till the break of day, New York beauty take my breath away.
