Flash Strike Strike Hey Lightning strikes in old New York It may be dark but I wanna talk It might rain, and it might snow Too many things that I got to know If this is spring then it's time to sing Never mind the lil' birdies wing Look out, look out, old New York New York's coming now Hey, strike! Not once Strike! But twice Get out your money, peel a slab Roll some notes an' hail a cab Drive down Seventh in a tank Drive in church drive in back Take in the sights, feel the breeze See New York's one and only tree It can be found in Garbage park But don't inspect it after dark Strike! New York! Lightning! Not once but twice Accidental hike in the transit strike Roller skate or ride a bike Three to a car, Brooklyn Bridge You won't get far if you're privileged Graffiti Jack sprays in black An Englishman, can he read it back? Deli Joe he ought to know He runs the gang on Pastrami Strike! Lightning Strike! Strike! Strike! Lightning Strike! Lightning Lightning strikin' Flash Lightning strikin' Hey ho, such a night I'll see y'all when the lightning strike A polaroid caught in the act You're married too and that's a fact But I won't peek and I won't squeak Down by the trucks on Christopher Street It's Cuban Day, Oi Vey Chinese New Year let's call it a day Strike! Lightning Strike! Strike!
