MUZZY:
THE WONDERS OF THE WORLD
ARE SAID TO STOP AT SEVEN,
BUT TRUTH TO TELL, MY FIGURES DON’T AGREE.
I NUMBER THEM AT EIGHT,
WITH ONE SO CLOSE TO HEAVEN,
THE OTHERS PALE, THEIR MAGIC STALE.
JUST TAKE A LOOK AND SEE.
STEP RIGHT UP TO TREASURE ISLE.
EV’RY INCH OF IT, A SKY-HIGH MILE.
FAIRYTALE LAND.
ONLY IN NEW YORK.
HEY CASTLE-BUILDER,
WANT THE MOON, AND NOTHING LESS?
WORK FOR YEARS, THEN OVERNIGHT SUCCESS!
I KNOW FIRSTHAND.
ONLY IN NEW YORK.
EACH DAY IT’S FREE ADMISSION
TO THOSE WHO DREAM.
YOU SET YOUR SIGHTS ALL THE WAY UPSTREAM.
OFF YOU GO, FOR YOU KNOW
THAT CREAM WILL RISE.
MAKE THAT WISH, SEEK THAT THRILL.
COME AND GET IT, ‘CAUSE YOU ALWAYS WILL
STRIKE UP THE BAND.
ONLY IN NEW YORK.
EACH DAY IT’S FREE ADMISSION
TO THOSE WHO DREAM.
YOU SET YOUR SIGHTS ALL THE WAY UPSTREAM.
OFF YOU GO, FOR YOU KNOW
THAT CREAM WILL RISE. RISE!
NEW, IMPROVES AND REARRANGED,
IT’S EVER-CHANGING, YET IT’S NEVER CHANGED.
LIFE ON COMMAND!
HEAR WHAT I’M SAYING: OH, BUT IT’S GRAND!
THAT’S WHY I’M STAYING RIGHT HERE AS PLANNED,
ONLY IN NEW YORK. ONLY IN NEW YORK.
ONLY IN NEW YORK!
