Text: Prince. 1999. All The Critics Love U In New York.

U can dance if U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
U don't have 2 keep the beat
They'll still think it's neat in New York

U can wear what U want 2
It doesn't matter in New York
U could cut off all your hair
I don't think they'd care in New York

All the critics love U in New York

Why U can play what U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
They won't say that U're naive
If U play what U believe in New York

Purple love-amour is all U're in it 4
But don't show it
The reason that U're cool
Is 'cause U're from the old school and they know it

All the critics love U in New York

U can dance if U want 2
All the critics love U in New York
U can dance if U want 2
All the critics love U in New York

All the critics love U, all the critics love U
All the critics love U in New York

It's time 4 new direction, it's time 4 jazz 2 die
4Th day of November, we need a purple high
Don't give up
I'll still love U

All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U, all the critics love U
All the critics love U in New York

Body don't wanna quit, gotta get another hit
Body don't wanna quit, gotta get another hit
Body don't wanna quit, gotta get another hit
Body don't wanna quit, gotta get another hit

(On the 1)
All the critics love U, all the critics love U
All the critics love U in New York

What're U lookin' at, punk?

Look out all U hippies, U ain't as sharp as me
It ain't about the trippin', but the sexuality
Turn it up
U can dance if U want 2

All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U in New York

Yes, we're certain of it
He's definitely masturbating

All the critics love U in New York
Take a bath, hippie
All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U in New York
All the critics love U in New York
In New York
New York
New York
New York
New York
