Our Manhattan Moment

The city streets burst at their seams
 And flood the earth with people's dreams
 But you're only concerned with some new shoe
 Once up Broadway, we had walked
 My mind was racing as you talked
 I wish that I could be as dumb as you
 We bought the lampshades and the cars
 The wind-up toys and cookie jars
 Another swap meet and bazaar with you
 But now your pointless lazy drawl
 Puts me to sleep and then I fall
 Into a place where I'm encased in glue
 Chorus:
 Keep it light (Keep it light)
 And keep it loose (Keep it loose)
 What's the fuss? (What's the fuss?)
 And what's the use?
 One night up in a penthouse suite
 Your famous friends I got to meet
 So nice to have my pinky painted blue
 And now I hear your voice an' pour a drink
 Don't you ever stop to think
 Beyond the safe and sanctioned point of view
 Chorus:
 Keep it light (Keep it light)
 You gotta keep it loose (Keep it loose)
 What's the fuss? (What's the fuss?)
 And what's the use?
 The city streets burst at their seams
 And flood the earth with people's dreams
 But you're only concerned with some new shoe
 So we'll still amble through the bars
 And count the pretty colored jars
 I still wish that I could be as dumb as you
 As dumb as you
 As dumb as you
 Just as dumb as you
