NYC
Navigating Life's Maze: James Levy's NYC Anthem
Lyrics
Do it up down in New York City
Expressing the energetic and lively atmosphere of New York City.
Grass is brown and the streets are gritty
Describing the urban environment with brown grass and gritty streets.
Growin' up its time to stop foolin' around
Signifying the need to mature and leave behind playful behavior.
I'm tearing up and I'm feeling pity
Conveying emotional distress and empathy, possibly for oneself or others.
Used to dress well I used to be pretty
Reflecting on a past when the speaker used to dress well and be attractive.
Growin' up its time to stop foolin' around
Reiterating the theme of growing up and abandoning frivolous actions.
Baby won't you lay with me?
Inviting someone to spend intimate time together.
Build me up you believe I really
Expressing the desire for support and encouragement.
Had a path and I used to be witty
Recalling a time when the speaker had a clear direction and was witty.
Growin' up its time to stop foolin' around
Emphasizing the necessity to grow up and stop being playful.
Wheelin' down with a peppermint tea and
Describing a moment of relaxation with peppermint tea.
Hold the milk and no sugar for me and
Requesting tea without milk and sugar, possibly a preference or lifestyle change.
Growin' up its time to stop foolin' around
Reiterating the theme of maturity and leaving behind childish behavior.
Baby won't you lay with me?
Repeating the invitation for intimacy.
Celebrate cause the weather its sunny
Celebrating good weather, suggesting positivity and joy.
It don't rain oh it better than money
Highlighting the value of good weather as superior to money.
Growin' up its time to stop foolin' around
Reiterating the theme of growing up and leaving behind immaturity.
Where I'll go I'm sure I'll be fine and
Expressing confidence about the future and being fine wherever the speaker goes.
All my friends are losing their mind and
Noting a sense of concern for friends who may be struggling with maturity.
Growin' up its time to stop foolin' around
Emphasizing the importance of stopping fooling around as one grows up.
Baby won't you lay with me?
Repeating the invitation for intimacy, closing the lyrics.
