[Chorus]
The Efaucets are dripping in old New York City
The Afaucets are dripping and Eoh, what a pity
The B7reservoir's drying because it's supplying
The faucets that drip in New EYork
[Verse 1]
You Ecan't ask the landlord to put in a washer
He'd Arather you move than to Eput in a washer
The B7faucets are dripping, they sound in my ears
The tap in the bathroom's been running for Eyears
[Chorus]
The Efaucets are dripping in old New York City
The Afaucets are dripping and Eoh, what a pity
The B7reservoir's drying because it's supplying
The faucets that drip in New EYork
[Verse 2]
EThere's a wild streak of green in the sink in the kitchen
It Acomes from the rill trickling Eout of the plumbing
The B7streams from the mountains, the pools from the lea
All run from my faucet and down to the Esea
[Chorus]
The Efaucets are dripping in old New York City
The Afaucets are dripping and Eoh, what a pity
The B7reservoir's drying because it's supplying
The faucets that drip in New EYork
[Verse 3]
You Ecan't ask the landlord to put in a washer
You Acan't ask the landlord to Emend the old stairs
He B7takes in the rents and he Elives in Miami
Where B7faucets don't drip and there's sun everyEwheres
[Chorus]
The Efaucets are dripping in old New York City
The Afaucets are dripping and Eoh, what a pity
The B7reservoir's drying because it's supplying
The faucets that drip in New EYork
[Verse 4]
The Efaucets are dripping, the landlord's content
With Aevery new tenant he Eraises the rent
The B7buildings can crumble, the Etenants can cry
There's a B7shortage of housing, you'll live there or Edie
[Chorus]
The Efaucets are dripping in old New York City
The Afaucets are dripping and Eoh, what a pity
The B7reservoir's drying because it's supplying
The faucets that drip in New EYork
[Verse 5]
They're Ebuilding some buildings and fine city centers
It's Asure working hell with the Elow-income renters
They're B7jammed into rooms with the rat and the fly
Where the faucets all drip and the floor's never Edry
[Chorus]
The Efaucets are dripping in old New York City
The Afaucets are dripping and Eoh, what a pity
The B7reservoir's drying because it's supplying
The faucets that drip in New EYork
