[Verse 1]
Friday night in New York City
Release the hounds in Central Park
Fires burn on the horizon
Run, don't walk

Say goodbye to Broadway
Howling cries and dogs of war
Screams and sirens on the tv
The buildings shake and they rattle the cars
Coney Island sinks back in the ocean
The power's flickering and then it goes off
Horses run free, helicopters and police
The shelves are empty in department stores

[Chorus]
So long
So long
So long
So long
(So long)
(So long)

[Verse 2]
Friday night in New York City
The party's just about to start
Close down the bridge
We puke and we cry
Everything's in flames
And Barneys is half full
We're out of time
And storming the tower
Goodbye
