[00:00.00]Tad: Jamie!
[00:00.88]Jamie: Tad!
[00:02.60]Tad: Monstrous events are scheduled for tonight
[00:15.37]I went away, just for the day
[00:17.29]To see my family
[00:18.29]What a bore
[00:22.59]Too many cocktails on the lawn
[00:24.71]Discussing sodomy and nuclear war
[00:30.20]Another yuppie puppy party
[00:32.22]In Connecticut suburbia
[00:37.64]The global meltdown has begun
[00:39.82]And it's beginning in suburbia
[00:45.29]I lit across the bridge, I flew into a cab
[00:48.32]I caught the first train back
[00:53.80]Tad and Girl: Grand Central Station here I come
[00:54.96]I need the middle of your
[00:56.46]Fastest, fastest track
[01:00.56]Tad: And then I get there and walk east on 42nd
[01:03.84]To the place where the light hits the sky
[01:07.57]That's right, yeah
[01:11.10]And I stand on my tiptoes and scream at the rooftops,
[01:15.22]Hey, did you miss me?
[01:16.93]Come over and kiss me!?
[01:19.16]It's great to be back in the city (Chorus: Great back in the the city)
[01:22.79] It's great to be back in my town (Chorus: Great back in my town)
[01:26.90]Tad and Chorus: Great to be back where such plenty goes down
[01:30.45]I got plenty to go around
[01:38.30]Tad: Look at the people
[01:41.50]Swarming around like flies
[01:53.28]They don't know me
[01:56.45]Tad and Chorus: I'm a hundred stories high
[02:06.73]Tad: I'm lookin' out my penthouse window
[02:08.51]At the New York City skyline, I say,
[02:11.83]Honey baby, you're all mine
[02:15.52]Yeah
[02:17.74]It's great to be back in the city (Chorus: Great back in the the city)
[02:21.17]It's great to be back in my town (Chorus: Great back in my town
[02:25.24]Back in the town where such
[02:27.10]Tad and Chorus: Plenty goes down
[02:28.46]And there's plenty to go around
[02:30.87]Chorus (repeated): 1984
[02:33.90]Tad: There's money falling from the sky
[02:36.42]Grab some, have some
[02:38.62]Tad and Chorus: Falling too fast
[02:40.53](Falling to fast)
[02:41.94]Running too free
[02:43.98](Running too free)
[02:45.80]Happy just to be in heartbreak
[02:53.29]Jumping too far
[02:55.16](Jumping too far)
[02:57.11]Crashing the ledge
[02:58.99](Crashing the ledge)
[03:00.93]Dancing on the edge of heartbreak
[03:12.29]Put all the hookers around the door
[03:16.81]Turn down the tricks at the bar
[03:20.77]Never the less, here we are
[03:24.43]The more impossible it is to get in,
[03:27.43]The more we want to explore
[03:29.70]Chorus (repeated): 1984
[03:36.88]Coke Girl: The drugs make you feel the music
[03:40.40]And the music makes you want more drugs
[03:44.99]Chorus: Heartbreak
[03:51.89]Jamie: And all you need is one more popper
[03:53.63]One more vodka
[03:54.64]One more topsy-turvy, hunky-dory
[03:56.46]Manic, manic, magic high
[03:58.38]Jamie and Chorus: Listen to the voices
[03:59.83]Raging round inside your head again
[04:01.42]Like a message from the Vatican
[04:03.20]They're watching as you're slipping,
[04:04.48]As you're ripping into tripping
[04:05.98]Are you willing to be killing
[04:07.51]All the dreams that you are having?
[04:09.90]Skipping, dripping, slipping, sliding
[04:10.67]When you really should be flying from heartbreak
[04:15.66]Welcome to the party baby, come on in
[04:20.41]Bright lights, big city
[04:21.44]Jamie: Look at the lights
[04:23.11]We'll get you in the middle of the universe
[04:26.12]Jamie and Chorus: Bright lights, big city
[04:27.80]Look at the lights
[04:30.10]We'll get you in the middle of the universe in 1984
[04:32.48]Bright lights, big city
