NY Money by White Denim Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The drugs quit workin', don't find 'em inspirin'
The number I'm dialin', the string unwindin'
Gap-tooth waitress in a five-star diner
I need so clear but you can't eat the diamond
It's not about me, it's about all of us survivin'
Am I really here if I always feel like I'm dyin'?
Hear much clearer when the music go quiet
Sing out your guts 'cause you got the nerve to try it
Let's string up a kite, key it, and find somewhere quiet
She's been lookin' at my mind, that's some kind of crime
[Chorus]
Well get ready
You can watch me
Disappearin'
Act like you knew all along
You just couldn't help it, no
[Verse 2]
Always end in goo, another leech on the skin
You jump out of the road so you can think about the div
But what're you bringing if you're trying not to give a shit?
Ooh, you're so dextrous, you just get it
Took the keys to my heart straight to the bank
Look so confused now 'cause nobody thanks me
Umbrella girls all lined up for their spankings
New York money's open wide for the taking
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't wait to hear 'bout how you got there first
I can't wait to see, man, that good old smirk
[Chorus]
Yes, I'm ready
You can watch me
Ain't really worth disappearin'
Act like you knew all along
You just couldn't help it, no
[Verse 3]
Start at the end, head for the stage
Aim at the boatsman, he's actin' his age
We remain so different and I see it so clear
We're all still here hidin' the same old fear
I pick up a jam but the jam isn't interesting
A kiss on the wrist of a hand that is blistering
Moment to moment, I become a new person
I'm in the wake of your sense of workin'
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't wait to hear 'bout how you got there first
I can't wait to see, man, that good old smirk
Yeah, somebody's waitin' just to watch you choke
Forget what they say, just stayin' for the notes
[Chorus]
And get ready
Oh, you can watch me
Disappearin'
Act like you knew all along
You just couldn't help it, no
[Post-Chorus]
Disappearin'
Disappearin'
Knew all along
Disappearin'
The drugs quit workin', don't find 'em inspirin'
The number I'm dialin', the string unwindin'
Gap-tooth waitress in a five-star diner
I need so clear but you can't eat the diamond
It's not about me, it's about all of us survivin'
Am I really here if I always feel like I'm dyin'?
Hear much clearer when the music go quiet
Sing out your guts 'cause you got the nerve to try it
Let's string up a kite, key it, and find somewhere quiet
She's been lookin' at my mind, that's some kind of crime
[Chorus]
Well get ready
You can watch me

Act like you knew all along
You just couldn't help it, no
