Lyrics
Heartbeat syncs to the 7 train's groove
Lights flash gold on your Astoria moves
Leather jacket scent mixed with bodega rose
We own the night where the Hudson flows
Desire's hotter than a manhole steam
Dancin' dirty like we're in a Spike Lee scene
From Flushing to the Bridge we're kings of the floor
This love's our anthem—Queens begs for more!
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!) Burnin' down Roosevelt Ave
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!) Kiss me where the rats scuttle past
We're graffiti on the wall of a city that never sleeps
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!) Queens' rhythm's ours to keep!
Your hips sway like the Q train's curve
Eyes reflecting neon from the Unisphere's serve
No VIP just malt liquor sips
Our love's a flicker in the blackout's eclipse
Spin me 'round under the MTA's hum
Lost in the maze where the night's begun
One more shot one more dice roll
Desire's the fire in this city's cold soul
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!) Burnin' down Roosevelt Ave
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!) Kiss me where the rats scuttle past
We're graffiti on the wall of a city that never sleeps
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!) Queens' rhythm's ours to keep!
When the dawn hits the projects' concrete
Our sweat's the proof that the block's still elite
Desire! (Ooh-yeah!)
