Uptown
Downtown is where it's at, I don't doubt that But today I can do without I'm getting sick of the slums I'm tired of dodging the bums And all the freaks are freaking me out
Today we ruin the roach, today we conquer the crab Today we bring the bedbug down Watch me, baby, hail a taxi cab You and me are going uptown
Well, let's go fly a kite in Central Park Go and see a Shakespeare play Have a lot of fun at the planetarium And museum all the blues away
Well, Rockefeller Center and the UN too Baby don't make me wait I want to elevate up and down with you In the building of the Empire State
Well, we'll eat dinner at your favorite Schrafft's Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Somebody gonna shine my shoes Then we'll pop into Playland for pinball laughs And read the Allied Chemical News
Le's go to Radio City Music Hall To catch the Rockettes of renown Then we get to The Garden for some basketball Or a fight for the heavyweight crown
That's right, a change of pace is good for a change It's a wonder all the goodness it gives Life is, oh, so sweet above Fourteenth Street Let's go see how the other half lives
Today we ruin the roach, today we conquer the crab Today we bring the bedbug down Watch me, baby, hail a taxi cab You and me are going uptown
