Have you met the girl from New York City? Don't you think she's kind of wonderful? The grass ain't always green where the girls are pretty Can you see her through a kaleidoscope? She could be a bad idea, bad idea You don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no Try to lay my luck on calling her baby Thought of her love every passing day But a lady never flirts with strangers And I don't wanna be left in the gray She could be a bad idea, bad idea I don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no Find her in the sky She caused the tears you cry What's it gonna take to convince you I'm okay? She could be a bad idea, bad idea You don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no Oh, [?] bad if I'm enjoying the shade Might as well give up 'cause I can't take no more delay Looking high and low, but I gave it all away And [?], no solutions And you never told a lie, all I wanted the truth But the world never stops to breathe Find her in the sky She caused the tears you cry What's it gonna take to convince you I'm okay? She could be a bad idea, bad idea (Find her in the sky) And I don't want a bad idea, bad idea, no (She caused the tears you cry) She could be a bad idea, bad idea What's it gonna take to convince you I'm okay?
