Lou Reed - New York Telephone Conversation lyrics

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 Oh, my, and what shall we wear Oh, my, and whop 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 here in the city of shows Openings, closings, bad repartee, everybody knows Oh, how sad, why do we call Oh, 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 k** me, if I can't be with you If I can't be with you
