So I Came To New York Ben Levi Ross & Hannah Cruz

[ROBIN]
Everyone's an asshole in Texas
Everyone pretends to be so polite
But inside they're all seething
As long as they're breathing
They're breathing vindictive oxygen
"Someone's gonna make us give back all this shit we stole!"
That's the refrain in their soul

Everyone's an asshole in Texas
Especially Dallas—
The sculptured hair and those stupid hats
And the acres of denim
And smiles fillеd with venom
And endlessly nurturеd grievances

And no one's gonna speak the truth
In a lying town
In a crooked place
No one's gonna speak the truth
When they know it doesn't matter
And so I came to New York

[ETHAN]
Everyone's a scumbag in Jersey
Everyone's exactly as loud and dumb
As the movies portray them
Should anyone pay them attention
They puff up like bullfrogs
Go and wear your muscle shirts and mullets with pride
'Cause you've got nothing real inside
