Beg to Differ - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

New York is far away from here

And you can see it in the rain

And you can see it in the cheap suits and the ties

It's just a fallen away frontier

And they are fencing it with fast food chains

And buildings that go up before your eyes

[Chorus]

And you say everybody's marching to the same beat

Marching to the same beat of the drum

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

But I will, I will, I will

Beg to differ with you

[Verse 2]

New York is far away from here

And you can see it in the coffee shops

And catch it from the corner of your eye

It's just a layer of thin veneer

Then it stretches like a parking lot

That's swept up in a string of satellites

[Chorus]

And you say everybody's marching to the same beat

Marching to the same beat of the drum

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

But I will, I will, I will

Beg to differ with you

[Bridge]

Full moon rising up in the air tonight

Freight train coming through to catch a ride down one [?]

Think about my love, hold my sweater a little tighter

They look off at distance and I feel a little better, you see

[Chorus]

You say everybody's marching to the same beat

Yeah, marching to the same beat of the drum

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

And I will, I will, I will

Beg to differ with you

[Verse 3]

New York is far away from here

And you can see it in the setting sun

See it just before you say goodbye

It's just a landscape of souvenirs

And I'm embarrassed to be human

I'm embarrassed that I want what I despise

[Chorus]

Well you say everybody's marching to the same beat

Yeah, marching to the same beat of the drum

Everybody's thinking of the same thing

But I will, I will, I will

Beg to differ with you
