NEW YORK MINUTE TODAY---Song Lyrics from RIFFIN SPIDERS Record TUNE THE MOON

NEW YORK MINUTE TODAY
Ya knew it when ya knew me
satisfy
aw but ya blew it baby
when ya threw me
off that ride

A New York Minute today!
when I saw you walkin’ away
so whatcha gonna do
butter to me
while I duck and hide

We ate at Duncan’s Brewery
by the pint
aw but ya made it baby
go kerplooey
by the morning light

A New York Minute today!
when I saw you walkin’ away
so whatcha gonna do
butter to me
while I duck and hide

There’s no point in pretending
excuses are never-ending
you played me for a salad bowl
so that’s your artist’s rendering

Forces greater than ourselves
are somehow still contending
when I fall asleep at night
I feel like I’m descending

We traded junk for jewelry
eye-to-eye
aw but you paid a punk to moon me
by the lunar light

A New York Minute today!
when I saw you walkin’ away
so whatcha gonna do
butter to me
while I duck and hide!

CITY OF DREAMS---Song Lyric from RIFFIN SPIDERS Record TUNE THE MOON

CITY OF DREAMS
When I woke up this mornin'
the cats outside were moanin
the phone next door was phonin'

The cops had finished patrollin'
it was
time for them to go bowlin'...in this city of dreams

My girlfriend
says I'm controllin'
she just
likes to go strollin'

But I ain't her I'm
a grown man
so put away the defoliant...in this city of dreams

When I went to bed last night
the stars were shining bright
the astronauts were all right
one of 'em said "please write"

The Moon was somewhere near Mars
there was a sale on candy bars
at the drugstore down the street
in aisle M we'll meet...in this city of dreams

In my dream you're something sweet
I like to nibble on
like Fae Ray was for Kong
although they didn't last long

He was one big fellow
and yet surprisingly mellow around her
or so it seems…in this city of dreams

Today I had a bad hiccup,
my cousin tried to play "stickup"
I lost a guitar pickup
at a show downtown

Trying out a new sound
ain't life a scream
it's all that you could ask for…in this city of dreams.
