New Amsterdam letra

You're sending me tulips mistaken for lilies
You give me a look that the function is silly
You turn my head till it roll down the brain-drain
If i had any sense now i wouldn't want it back again
New amsterdam it's become much too much
'til i have the possession of everything she touches
'til i step on the brake to get out of her clutches
'til i speak double dutch to a real double duchess
Down on the main spring listen to the tick-tock
Collect all the faces that move in your lot
Twice-shy and dog-tied because you've been bitten
Everything you say now sounds like it was ghost-written

New amsterdam it's become much too much
'til i have the possession of everything she touches
'til i step on the brake to get out of her clutches
'til i speak double dutch to a real double duchess
Back in london they'll take you to heart after a little while

Though i look right at home i still feel like an exile
Somehow i found myself down at the dockside
Thinking about the old days of liverpool and rotherhide
Transparent people who live on the other side
Living a life that is almost like suicide
New amsterdam it's become much too much
'til i have the possession of everything she touches
'til i step on the brake to get out of her clutches
'til i speak double dutch to a real double duchess
