Lyrics:
I can see my old hotel Down amongst the smells I'm up above that ancient city river It's filtered by my lousy liver It's filtered by my wilted lily liver I can see my old hotel It ain't even a hotel 5am there came some sleet or hail It was signal taps on the brave window Solemn taps on the wavy window I can see my old hotel Hear those old touristy bells Soon I'll be down the hill shopping Giddy like a tipsy Mary Poppins Giddy like a tipsy Mary Poppins I can see my old hotel It ain't even a hotel I'm scheduled to ride the rails If I wished to stay on this tower Things would derange given just another hour
Tell me where you wanna go (wanna go) oh oh Don't care if we've been through it ten times before Told you I'm down to hit the road (hit the road) oh oh And we can take all of them shortcuts you know Girl we could get us a flight And we could see where it takes us Go wherever you want Even the touristy places Tell me where you wanna go (wanna go) oh oh Don't care if we've been through it ten times before
I can see my old hotel Down amongst the smells I'm up above that ancient city river It's filtered by my lousy liver It's filtered by my wilted lily liver I can see my old hotel It ain't even a hotel 5am there came some sleet or hail It was signal taps on the brave window Solemn taps on the wavy window I can see my old hotel Hear those old touristy bells Soon I'll be down the hill shopping Giddy like a tipsy Mary Poppins Giddy like a tipsy Mary Poppins I can see my old hotel It ain't even a hotel I'm scheduled to ride the rails If I wished to stay on this tower Things would derange given just another hour
Took the M train from Steinway to the village today Thinking about the softness of your hands against mine Your head rests on my shoulder in this car while it shakes, rattles, and rolls Through the tunnels under the rivers and the sea Making a list for our trip over the Christmas holiday Like where to go, what to eat, and all the touristy things Let's visit the Top of the Rock and skate under the Christmas tree Ride horse drawn carriages around central park Then dinner in Greenwich and a night out on the town Taking in all of the lights and sounds of Times Square Still so much left to see but as long as you're next to me I don't care, because this taxi will take us anywhere Or stay in order room service and watch the seasonal things I'll kiss your forehead while you kiss me on the cheek Your presence is a present to which nothing can compare
There's a wealth of opportunity, you plan your trips accordingly. A pity, but the pretty ones are usually more touristy. Say, how'd you like to run away from these machines? Everywhere the spies are printing out your dreams.
It's only Thursday Everybody got intentions I understand She acting hell a thirsty Her love is not limited to men Opened up mind and heart Ain't no need to tear apart Fingers up to generations Hating our situation We will not loosen up Always changing never stuck They stay in they old ways Think they running out of luck No maturity need you some more security All them demons now you searching for purity It's never even mind in obscurity Too young to not be acting touristy Been a while on the streets we was earning Fucking up everyday we was learning Over eager accomplishments I be yearning Do the opposite marijuana be burning Never getting stuck sitting on the same page Clearing out the path while I'm using this rage Bodies of my demons helped build this stage Make it look like magic but I ain't no mage Every drum beat like my heart for the fam Remember best parts of my life like the gram Hope I see a hundred century Sam Wouldn't change nothing I'd do it again It's only Thursday Everybody got intentions I understand She acting hell a thirsty Her love is not limited to men Opened up mind and heart Ain't no need to tear apart Fingers up to generations Hating our situation We will not loosen up Always changing never stuck They stay in they old ways Think they running out of luck
Some nameless angel Fights for the future, on The less touristy side Of the moon. Through arcane darkness and time Only her, and a litany Of funny old rules - the dust of old codes Swept away, like cll those pious fools With a flash of her wings... ...but in sweeping, c feather is lost Unto space, Quite breathlessly.
There's a little boy with bottle caps tacked to his shoes He's dancin to the sound of some Jackson Square Blues! He's working for coin from some touristy blonde These are the pictures from Café Dumonde There's a man with a trumpet playing "Doxology" A tuba and guitarman accompany The people all smile as they play out their song These are the pictures from Café Dumonde You'll see horses and carriages waiting for fares Who give colorful rides and tell French Quarter tales You'll see Ghostly and Vampire Tours walk before dawn These are the pictures from Café Dumonde These are the pictures from Café Dumonde So come visit the Big Easy and sit for a spell Its right down Decatur and just past the Square The Coffee and Bignets will make you grow fond Of the memories created at Café Dumonde Of the memories created at Café Dumonde
The traveler wants to see the city as it is The ways of its day-to-day lives A hidden gem, a nice surprise, priceless value Well, I think you've all taken time To check the latest PR online, it has its moments Plenty of touristy east-side locales But the crowds get big, move slow So go on to the western side To see where we artists spend our time, I've got an idea Coffee from this stellar convenience store with a 7 on the sign The connoisseur takes raw egg on rice, olive oil Oyster soy sauce We're much more than our cars and bikes Musical instruments made with care, jazz is the king here Jazzmen are moving to some other sound To reveal the Tokyo feel This swing you've been hearing By all means buy and take home sugar from the north Salt from the south Have you noticed the cat is back So many of us we live with cats, to say that we're not Pious is more than a bit of a stretch 'Cause the cat has Buddha's face We're good at sports like baseball and boxing Skateboarding, yet play is banned everywhere Big-wigs get it all wrong I'll recommend a souvenir That gives you a little taste of here, the modal jazz feel Get all decked out, give a toast, spread the love At the jellyfish, get stunned
Tijuana, an unusual town Tensions are high but the people are down A crazy night led me to this borderland Tijuana, we don't have to go far My broken Spanish still works at the bar I say "Cer-vay-sa" It's funny, but he'll understand It's not that easy to just runaway from everything I've known Something about this little town still feels like home That's why whenever I need to get away I take a drive to the limit and I spend the day I fall in love with the feeling and I wanna stay But someone always reminds me That I don't know the language Tijuana, isn't much at a glance Not what you picture when you think of romance A little distance takes me to another world Tijuana, took a hold of my heart Once I made it past the touristy parts And this adventure turned me to another girl It's not so easy, I just run to you when things are going wrong I love the energy, but I won't be here long That's why whenever I need to get away I take a drive to the limit and I spend the day I fall in love with the feeling and I wanna stay But someone always reminds me That I don't know the language I keep going back, so I know they're concerned I stay off that Mezcal, I swallowed the worm Why go at all , if you won't go all the way (I, I, I, I wanna go all the way) I'm doing the most but I'm not slowing down Lay out on the coast while waves crash around me Fumando Mota, watching nights turn to days It's not that easy to just runaway from everything I've known Something about this little town still feels like home That's why whenever I need to get away I take a drive to the limit and I spend the day I fall in love with the feeling and I wanna stay But someone always reminds me That I don't know the language
It's the the only thing that keeps this species alive This species alive Please verify your identity We've sent you this clever 4-digit unlock code So you can access your PayPal And buy all that you need to finally feel at home To finally feel at home "Haven't seen you for the past week or month or so" I was busy watching the dust collect on my favorite star wars memorabilia That I bought in a touristy shop in London Thinking it might hold up some sort of nostalgic value Well, now I just see it as another piece of clutter Filling my room to the brim with shit That would make for a better fit on eBay With low resolution iPhone 4 pictures of an easy-care laminate floor Eureka, I yell, Another sad white guy professing his drunk brain's thoughts over diminishing guitar chords Opening his Instagram feed over and over again Only to find the same Rolling Stone article about the all new and revised 1 billion best songs of all time list, that he'll never read "I am the all new Patrick Batemen" he exclaims, As he adds the entrepreneur bullet point to his Tinder profile The 2050 crypto-verse shits a brick And births the all exclusive Schindler's list NFT pack in Steven Spielberg's memory Netflix passwords become one As the collective descent into madness takes a nose dive And morphs the depression machine into a maniacal mutant of destruction Capable of speeding the effects of climate change up by 10%, buy now!
Not in contact with anyone that I knew from Barbara Goleman Gotta learn to live with regrets and your karma homie Driving my car home park and just sit there Nights spent in my dark room watching cartoons I just didn't care life isn't fair Visited my pops and his beard has white hairs My aunt haunts me she appeared in my nightmares I miss her very much I swear she's right there Art Morera Arthur's my first name I'm back Life story told thru rap Told thru rap Hold on one second Art Morera Yeah no smoke breaks now not right now I'm saying man saying man saying man Where was I Art Morera Yeah yeah Earth is my birthplace my mind's in outer space Miami's touristy repping the county Dade Where I was made something's never change When Rev and I made revenue all we'd ever do is get paid So much driving got oil changes every seven days The guy at Toyota Care started looking at me strange and learning my name He knew we were loaded but I doubt he knew I was in Las Vegas self loathing If somebody would've told me that I would sell clothing Flipping weed money to shirts with Twelve AM on it?
Just a sink in the bathroom The roads less travelled Full of danger and mystery Well, the roads most travelled are Quite often touristy Food so good that it's almost sickening Check out the Museum of Natural History Go and see a show at the fashionable West End You pick the right one You might see a legend Go and have some laughter at the comedy store Have a drink in Soho if you want to be bored Travel on the tube if you're going far Save a bit of money with an Oyster card!
I'll show you the facts I'll show with the numbers So you do the math and you do the judgements My sources are valid and credited so that you know that you can trust me I wouldn't lie about this I promise It's a real thing if you cannot admit That it's real than your opinions don't matter or they're corrupted as hell Because all of the people that tell you It's all hoax and that it isn't true Are the same people that benefit From all the things that they abuse Like burning fuels so the rich get richer while They give don't give a any damn about you So it's bout time that we realize the truth We fucked the environment up and now its time to prove The same way we broke it we can find a way to patch it altogether again Or eleven years we'll start our end Done human race dead extinct Just like the animals that we all killed in the blink of an eye It's hard to realize that we did it But all the crimes we committed Warrant repent and forgiveness Acknowledgment of the greed that was emitted Into mother nature in CO2 form of emissions But like I said don't just take it from me There are plenty of studies That I will cite That'll get you to know That this will not blow away over and go I beg of you of read about it and then show Others that this decade is the only time we hold To turn this shit around or were gone 11 Years left clock ticking down If we hit two degrees of an increase in temperature relative to pre industrial levels Here's what will happen according to nasa First come the troubles With weather Hurricanes 5 every year Starting from now to forever Death's in the millions to fear Then the earthquakes and flooding Natural disasters will be a biweekly endeavor 100 Percent of all coral reefs will die Taking along with it all of the fish and the bio Diversity that we need to survive Without it most aquatic species will die Crabs shrimps jellyfish octopi Not to mention that the function coral Is to make sure the ocean can thrive and sustain life If we hit two degrees of an increase in temperature relative to pre industrial levels By 2050 the coasts of world will be dug in the sea, six feet deep 40% Of Americans live on the coast And all of them will have to flee That means New York Miami Atlantic City will turn to Atlantis City And the cities that will manage to stay afloat will have seasonal heatwaves 30, 000 Will die in the US just for that by the mid century What a horrific fate An additional 20 million children hungry by 2050 Leading to displacement and refugees By the way if you only care about the economy Our GDP will decrease by 2.3 percent for every degree That we go over temperature from back in the 1880s By 2030 climate change will be costs 700 billion yearly Miami alone will lose 3.5 trillion dollars Three times more than the worth of Apple company Touristy island like Mladives and Fiji will cease to exist We'll lose our agriculture our corn and our wheat 10 Percent of livestock will go up in the air like they're mist And the materials to make the shoes on our feet Could potentially be released To cause heat to melt away ice that would lead to gases That would cost 60 trillion dollars If none of that scares you you're crazy Think about your future baby They will live in a world that's no longer worth living in They'll ask you 'why did you make me'?
Nice, quiet little town. And I see as little shop, I'm in the touristy section of the place and I see a shop, it says gourmet popsicles. And I was intrigued. I've never had a gourmet popsicle.
