New York Telephone Conversation

I was sleeping gently napping

When I heard the phone

Who is on the other end talking

Am I even home

Did you see what she did to him

Did you hear what they said

Just a New York conversation

Rattling in my head

Oh my and what shall we wear

Oh my and whop really cares

Just a New York conversation

Gossip all of the time

Did you hear who did what to whom

Happens all the time

Who has touched and who has dabbled here in the city of shows

Openings closings bad repartee

Everybody knows

Oh how sad why do we call

Oh I'm glad to hear from you all

I am calling yes I'm calling just to speak to you

For I know this night will kill me if I can't be with you

If I can't be with you
