Peter Silberman - New York lyrics

When my nerve wore down I was a**ailed by simple little sounds Hammer clangs, sirens in the park Like I never heard New York Blaring brakes, trapped trucks Honking horns, hissing buses struck Shrieking trains barreling berserk Like I never heard New York Like I never heard New York When the room grew loud I learned to stand in back, behind the crowd Dam can*ls with cork Like I never heard New York But when the walls gave away I had to flee, I had to back away As the whole town barked Like I never heard New York Like I never heard New York
