Against the Elements
We are still at the mercy
of the elements
despite our technological advances
Today the city is
covered in snow
No cars moving, no mail
Inside I am warm and
watching beautiful women
on my TV
Late I'll turn on the radio
and listen to the
great American songbook
I'll take the time inside
make it into something nice
The city is reeling
But New Yorkers have know
adversity in the past
and have always come out on top
Gotham houses some sturdy people
Who don't give up easily
