lyrics

Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri you
Capture New York
The way I could never do in words.
Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri you’re a talent
Rare to this square
Of IP thieves and used book dealers.
Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri you
See water towers
When we’re all looking down at our screens.
So Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri won’t you
Draw me another?
I think I’ve got 10 more here on me.

When it all goes to embers
‘Cause the logic was “save the banks,”
You’ll remember
The life in the architecture.

Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri you
Capture New York
The way I‘d like to remember it.
Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri your perspective
Blesses the crowd
Of drug store patrons and hedge fund pricks.
So Yuri Yuri Yuri Yuri won’t you
Draw me another?
I think I’ve got 10 more here on me.

When you no longer render
(Please don’t you throw)
It a sight to behold, don’t throw
(Out your paper)
Pen and paper
Out with the fountain water.

And when it all goes to embers
(When it all goes)
‘Cause the logic was “save the banks,”
(Down to embers)
You’ll remember
The life in the architecture.

When you no longer render
(Please don’t you throw)
It a sight to behold, don’t throw
(Out your paper)
Pen and paper
Out with the fountain water.

And when it all goes to embers
(When it all goes)
‘Cause the logic was “save the banks,”
(Down to embers)
You’ll remember
The life in the architecture.
