Nueva Broadway (They Don't Smoke)

歌詞

I can't believe the things I see on Broadway today The ladies of the evening are going away Disney's built a fortress in the heart of Times Square The most wholesome people will soon be there They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think Hubert had his circus on Forty-Second street The most fabulous freaks you'd ever want to meet To us that emporium was built on hallowed ground But the city fathers shut it down They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think No more raunch, no more sleeze Not even one old time polite striptease They don't rob, they don't steal And they confuse that Batman's car with a pimpmobile They don't curse, they don't swear And on Sunday mornings they are lost in prayer They don't lie, they don't cheat They're Christian soldiers and they're marching down our street Grant's was the best bar I was ever in The center of the universe, a cauldron of sin Sure sometimes when the lights went out, someone would get shot That's no reason to bring back Camelot They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think They don't smoke. They don't drink They'll turn this town into a mall And I don't know what to think In the golden days of yore Grayline would take them on a tour It was them, it was us But at least they would remain upon the bus They say thanks, they say please And they cover up their noses when they sneeze They have jobs, no welfare They don't even know the meaning of despair They don't shout, they don't spit There aren't many crimes they're willing to commit They don't pack guns, they don't pull knives I don't know how these people think they will survive
