letra de i did a gig in new york - m.j. hibbett
i did a gig in new york – it didn’t really work out like i thought it would
i saw no spiderman in action nor indeed fantastic four
when i did a gig in new york
we were heading to a wedding as far off as you can go
on the way we thought we’d try and circ-mnavigate the globe
with stop-offs in oahu, san francisco, singapore but first of all in new york
well we set off mid-november and i realised mid-flight
a festival we’d only seen on friends was happening in real life
us citizens see thanksgiving as mostly family time not for rock
not even in new york
and so i couldn’t get a booking no matter how hard i tried
the only gig still going was a poet’s open mic
so i met with gregg and mrs gregg, some friends, on the east side
and off we went to a gig in new york
i did a gig in new york – it didn’t really work out like i thought it would
i didn’t meet madonna or get showered with applause when i did a gig in new york
the other acts were angry poets or stand-ups who would all say
godd-mn you motherf-ckers, also happy holidays
poets don’t use ukeleles, stand-ups do not have guitars so nor did i
not in new york
so i stood up, acapella, and i shouted out two tunes
then told a joke about the founding fathers they all thought was rude
after me two ladies waved v-g-n-s, dancing round the room
that’s how it rolls, in new york
i did a gig in new york
i had a funny feeling i’d supported someone quite like them before
but anyway, we finished off our beers and headed for the door and that was that
for my gig in new york
well i took a yellow cab back to the hotel, in a daze
next day got up to go and watch the macy’s day parade
as charlie brown pursued that football all the way down thirty fourth i thought hang on, i’m in new york!
and i did a gig in new york, ok it didn’t work out like i thought it would
but it’s a story i will tell a million times and not get bored
about the gig i did in new york
so if you do a gig in new york
don’t get upset if it don’t work out exactly as you thought
just remember you’ll remember one simple fact for ever more:
that you did a gig in new york
