Lyrics
I said to my friend, Kid, I know I'm just a tourist, but it's your New York duty to turn my tourist frown upside down so he took me to a party for fire-eaters we did drugs in the toilet yeah, we were so downtown I said, "Will there be a band?" "God, I hope not! Isn't it beautiful? Doesn't it feel like the end of the world? I mean, you can already see the ruins start to grow The end of the world's gonna be ... beautiful" Later on I said to Kid, "Hey, look at me, Look at me, I'm on the top of the first world With a free beer" He said, "Don't worry, my dear, They'll let any trash in here" At the windows on the world At the windows on the world At the windows on the world At the windows on the world I remember trying to bore the bored barmaid, I said, "You know, babe, from here You can see forever" She said, "Yeah, I know I got it made, Here's your fuckin' beer I love that look, it's so Unibomber" I said to Kid, "We build these beautiful tombs And then the dead trap us all inside" He said, "Mark, if you're so goddamn smart, Tell me why tourists always wanna get so high" At the windows on the world At the windows on the world At the windows on the world At the windows on the world If I snap my fingers, what will I get? If I snap my fingers, what will I get? If I snap my fingers, what will I get? That's right, anything I want Anything I want At the windows on the world At the windows on the world At the windows on the world At the windows on the world
