Morning
Oh right, another interview?
A million times the charm
Growing up in Jersey City
The wrong side of the Hudson
I wished upon the Manhattan skyline
Thought I'd show up and land a job at the Times or the Observer
A writer with a big city byline (yeah, you will be)
Well, I'm exhausted after months of pounding pavement
But fingers crossed, you nail this interview at ten (sure)
'Cause when the facts say Andy Sachs moved back to Jersey
Do you? (No)
I decide to be irrationally confident and try again (damn straight)
I'm ready to work, today could be my day (that's the spirit, baby)
So the New Yorker doesn't want me, that's okay (screw them)
As soon as I get one good shot I'd show this city
I mean business
I mean business, oh yeah
I mean business, yes I do
I mean business, New York City
And then I'm taking the train
To my 15th interview (ay)
I'm in business (yep), and I'm ready to work
And then I'll work my way back to you
Hey, good luck
I wanna write the kind of stories that define a generation
I know someday I'll find my voice
I just need some validation
When can I show them how good I am?
How many doors can a city slam?
Somebody please take a chance on me
I'm noone today (I'm noone today)
Tomorrow wait and see
I mean business, oh yeah
I mean business (I might meet a great leader), yes I do
Yes, I mean it (I'm finally), New York City
You know, I've got so much to say
How do I let my voice conquer?
I'm ambitious and I'm ready
(To work) I grew up wishing on the skyline
But now I'm here and I've got work to do
In New York City
I got work to do
