Istanbul (Not Constantinople) (Single) They Might Be Giants

[Verse 1]
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night
Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
So if you've a date in Constantinople
She'll be waiting in Istanbul

[Chorus]
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way

[Verse 2]
So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That's nobody's business but the Turks

[Bridge]
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Istanbul (Istanbul)
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Istanbul (Istanbul)
