In New York (Mamdani's Song) (dance, extended version )

In New York we ride at dawn we wait for the sweet song to reverberate to reach into your heart to find we are not so different (we have so much in common) you and I In New York we ride at noon the falafel truck at lunch draws the usual bunch we chat we smile differences and common ground Sitting just outside the courthouse share gossip laugh and frown About this crazy life downtown In New York we ride in the afternoon We ride right along beside you staring at the same skylight and you voted for him too didnt you the biggest city in the country If we can work together there we can work together anywhere In New York we always ride at night and it's more than just polite we laugh and we party and we feast together we need to know each other better , If we are to prepare for the weather If we are to hold steady against the night In New York, we ride at dawn to the church bells and the athzan Calling out in the same city I think its such a pity we took so long to know each other We have always been brothers (you were there all along) you and I Words and music by Maryam El Sherif 2026 Flying Eggs Music
