New York City Moves to the Sound of L.A.

Hey, let's get right back to the basics Every movement made up was useless Same old shit with a brand new sound Write it off as progress, it's pointless Not sure who you were in the 80's Stole all your ideas from other cities Get it straight when you're upside down Things are looking stale, it's time to turn around I was sick of the feeling And sick of image and sound And getting far without leaving Thanks for letting me down Now I know that it's all been done before And will all be done again So pick up the trends, you dumb Americans Now I know that it's all been done before And will all be done again So pick up the trends Burn it down and rip out the pages The kids are all right through the ages Making sure that it works for now Cut your hair and paint your stupid faces Let's pretend that we can get together Yeah, yeah, let's enjoy one another Useless talking about that now Everybody still likes to fuck around Taking too long to catch up Going back to the past And things are moving much farther To falling back on their ass Now I know that it's all been done before And will all be done again So pick up the trends, you dumb Americans Now I know that it's all been done before And will all be done again So pick up the trends New York City loves to mess around With the L.A. sound, the L.A. sound New York City loves to mess around With the L.A. sound, the L.A. sound Come on New York City loves to mess around With the L.A. sound, the L.A. sound New York City loves to mess around With the L.A. sound, oh yeah, the L.A. sound Now I know that it's all been done before And will all be done again So pick up the trends, you dumb Americans Now I know that it's all been done before And will all be done again So pick up the trends, oh, come on swim
