Start counting the stiffs,
I'm coming your way.
I want to dismember parts of it,
New York, New York.
No more half-naked kiddies
Out at Crystal Lake for me.
I'm the new Son of Sam,
On a new killing spree.
Won't attract any stares.
I want to draw and quarter it,
New York, New York.
I'll be just one more madman
Out roaming the city streets. I'll maim, chop, slash, and I'll kill,
Just as I please.
This summer-camp axe,
is longing to swing.
I want body parts from all of it,
New York, New York.
I'll be no stranger there,
In Central Park or in Times Square,
I'll feel right at home,
New York, New York.
