The Strokes - New York City Cops lyrics

Here in the streets so mechanised Rise to the bottom of the meaning of life Studied all the rules didn't want no part But i let you in just to break this heart Even though it was only one night It was f**ing strange Nina's in the bedroom She said time to go now But leavin' it ain't easy I got to let go I got to let go And the hours they ran slow I said everynight she just can't stop sayin' New york city cops New york city cops New york city cops They ain't too smart New york city cops New york city cops New york city cops They ain't too smart Well, k** me now, i let you down I swear one day we're gonna leave this town Stop Yes i'm leavin' 'cause it just won't work They act like romans But they dress like turks Sometime, in your prime See me, i like the summertime Nina's in the bedroom She said time to go now But leavin' it ain't easy I got to let go I got to let go Oh! Trapped in an apartment She would not let them get her She wrote it in a letter I got to come clean The authorities they've seen Darling i'm somewhere in between I said everynight every night, i just can't stop sayin' New york city cops New york city cops New york city cops They ain't too smart New york city cops New york city cops New york city cops They ain't too smart
