[Instrumental]   x4 [Verse 1] It can only lead to trouble if you break my heart If you accidentally crush it on the ides of March I’d prefer you were straight forward You don’t have to go through all of that I’m a New York city man baby Say "go" and that is that [Chorus] New York city man you just say "go" and that is that    I’m a New York city man you just say "go" and that is that    [Verse 2] It’s far too complicated to make up a lie That you’d have to remember and really why I wouldn’t want to be around you If you don’t want to have me around I’m a M-A-N-N man You Blink your eyes and I’ll gone [Chorus] M-A-N-N man you blink your eyes honey and I’ll be gone    New York city man you blink your eyes and I’ll gone    [Verse 3] Brutus made a pretty speech but Caesar was betrayed Lady Macbeth went crazy but Macbeth ended slain Ophelia and Desdamona dead leaving Hamlet in a play But I’m no Lear with blinded eyes Say " go " and I am gone The stars have shut their eyes up tight The earth has changed it’s course                                             Kingdom sits on black knight’s back As he tries to mount white jeweled horse While a clock full of butterflies on the hour Releases a thousand moths You say " leave" and I’ll be gone Without any remorse No letters faxes phones or tears There’s a difference between Bad and worse [Chorus] I’m a New York city man blink your eyes and I’ll be gone New York city - man blink your eyes and I’ll be gone    [Instrumental]   x2 [Outro] New York city I love you New York city man       New York city I love you blink your eyes and I’ll be gone   Just a little grain of sand New York city ooohhh I love you New York city baby blink your eyes and I’ll be gone I love you

La chanson évoque les relations compliquées et les attentes affectives, soulignant la franchise et la simplicité dans les interactions. L'artiste exprime son désir d'être honnête et direct, sans faux-semblants ni mensonges. Il semble aussi faire référence à des figures historiques et littéraires, illustrant les dangers de la trahison et de l'illusion. Dans une ambiance new-yorkaise, il affirme son identité, se déclarant homme de la ville, prêt à s'en aller rapidement si les choses ne sont pas claires. Cette rapidité laisse entrevoir une certaine légèreté, comme si l'amour et les liens étaient à la fois précieux et éphémères.
