The Lyrics
Forgot yesterday: "Saboteur"
It is a hella view:
New York skyline
The bad guy is up there with you—
He goes flyin’
Off of there, flyin’.
You were both there standing,
And then he went down.
They law had been branding
You as a saboteur; to that town
You chased the fella who
Had done the crime,
big time.
You went to
Where the view
Can show you
NYU
And the prow
Of the ship, spared
By your bravery
It’s OK now—
Just barely!
Now you’re the fella who’s
Clear of the crime.
New York skyline
The bad guy is up there with you—
He goes flyin’
Off of there, flyin’.
You were both there standing,
And then he went down.
They law had been branding
You as a saboteur; to that town
You chased the fella who
Had done the crime,
big time.
You went to
Where the view
Can show you
NYU
And the prow
Of the ship, spared
By your bravery
It’s OK now—
Just barely!
Now you’re the fella who’s
Clear of the crime.
