I was sleeping gently napping when I heard the phone Who is on the other end talking am I even home Did you see what she did to him did you hear what they said Just a New York conversation rattling in my head Ooh my and what shall we wear ooh my and who really cares Just a New York conversation gossip all of the time Did you hear who did what to whom happens all the time Who has touched and who has dabbled hear in the city of shows Openings closings badrap party everybody knows Ooh how sad and why do we call ooh I'm glad to hear from you all I am calling yes I'm calling just to speak to you For I know this night will kill me if I can't be with you If I can't be with you
