Lyrics New Politics

New Politics

Harlem

I spend my money on the regular miracles

Just like you, like me, like everybody else.

Up on the sun, lookin' sad and beautiful

Just like you, like me, like everybody else.

(When it gets loud, I turn it up)

Shake it like a bad girl up in Harlem

(When it's too hot, I light it up)

Ooh, light it up, yeah, smoke em if you got 'em

Here come the jets, hide my money in your tube socks

Run like me, like hell, like everybody else

Hair metal on a Japanese boom box

Kicks like you, like me, like everybody else

(When it gets loud, I turn it up)

Shake it like a bad girl up in Harlem

(When it's too hot, I light it up)

Light it up, yeah, smoke em if you got 'em

(When it's too soft, I shake it up)

Sh-Sh-Sh-Shake it like a bad girl up in Harlem

(You’re so sweet, but I like it rough)

Ooh, light it up, yeah, smoke em if you got 'em

Makin' a movie on the couch with a flip phone

Just like you, like I, like fingers in your mouth.

Up on the sun, playing drums with a bleached bone

Just like you, like me, like everybody else.

(When it gets loud, I turn it up)

Shake it like a bad girl up in Harlem

(When it's too hot, I light it up)

Light it up, yeah, smoke 'em if you got 'em

(When it's too soft, I shake it up)

Like I look at a bad girl up in Harlem

(You're so sweet, but I like it rough)

Ooh, light it up, yeah, smoke 'em if you got 'em
