"Beg To Differ" Patty Larkin

New York is far away from here

New York is far away from here

And you can see it in the rain

And you can see it in the cheap suits and the ties

It's just a fallen away frontier

It's just a fallen away frontier

And they are fencing it with fast food chains

And buildings that go up before your eyes

You say everybody's marching to the same beat

Marching to the same beat of the drum

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

But I will I will I will

Beg to differ with you

New York is far away from here

New York is far away from here

And you can see it in the coffee shops

And catch it from the corner of your eye

It's just a layer of thin veneer

It's just a layer of thin veneer

And it stretches like a parking lot

That's swept up in a string of satellites

You say everybody's marching to the same beat

Marching to the same beat of the drum

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

But I will I will I will

Beg to differ with you

New York is far away from here

New York is far away from here

And you can see it in the setting sun

See is just before you say goodbye

It's just a landscape of souvenirs

It's just a landscape of souvenirs

And I'm embarrassed t obe human

I'm embarrassed that I want what I despise

You say everybody's marching to the same beat

Marching to the same beat of the drums

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

But I will I will I will

Beg to differ with you
