WARBUCKS



What is it about you 

You're big 

You're loud 

You're tough NYC 

I go years without you 

Then I 

Can't get 

Enough 

Enough of the cab drivers answering back 

In the language far from pure 

Enough of frankfurters answering back 

Brother, you know you're in NYC 

Too busy 

Too crazy 

Too hot 

Too cold 

Too late 

I'm sold 

Again 

On NYC 



(spoken) 

Come on you slowpokes, we gotta get to the Roxy before the prices change. 



NEW YORKERS, GRACE, ANNIE AND WARBUCKS



NYC 



GRACE



The shadows at sundown 

The roofs 

That scrape 

The sky 



ALL



NYC 



WARBUCKS AND GRACE 



The rich and the rundown 

The parade 

Goes by 



WARBUCKS 



That other town has the Empire State 

And a mayor five foot two 

No other town in 

The whole forty eight 

Can half compare 

To you 



ALL 



Oh NYC 



WARBUCKS 



You make 'em all postcards 



WARBUCKS AND GRACE 



You crowd 

You cramp 

You're still 

The champ 

Amen For NYC (NYC) 

The shimmer of Times Square 



WARBUCKS 



The pulse 



GRACE



The beat 



WARBUCKS AND GRACE 



The drive! (NYC) 



WARBUCKS AND GRACE 



The city's bright 

As a penny arcade 

It blinks, it tilts, it rings 



ANNIE 



To think that I've lived here all of my life 

And never seen these things 



ALL 



Oh, NYC 

The whole world keeps coming 



WARBUCKS



By bus 



GRACE



By train 



WARBUCKS AND GRACE 



You can't 

Explain 

Their yen 

For 



STAR TO BE



NYC



Just got here this morning 

Three bucks 

Two bags 

One me 

NYC 



I give you fair warning 

Up there 

In lights 

I'll be 

Go ask the Gershwins or Kaufman and Hart 

The place they love the best 

Though California pays big for their art 

Their fan mail comes addressed to NYC 

Tomorrow a penthouse 

That's way up high 

Tonight 

The "Y" 

Why not 

It's NYC 



ALL



NYC 

You're standing room only 

You crowd 

You cramp 

You're still 

The champ 

Amen For NY 



MAN 



(spoken) 

Keep it quiet down there! 



ALL (QUIETLY) 



NYC 



USHERETTE 



(spoken) 

Immediate seating... there is immediate seating. 



WARBUCKS 



(spoken) 

Popcorn, what do you say to some popcorn? I haven't had popcorn since... (Annie
yawns) 



(singing) 

Give in 

Don't fight 

Good girl 

Good night 

Sleep tight 

In NYC
