Editor's note: This line is actually disputed. Christopher actually sounds like he's clearly saying "All of his life, his master's toys", but most lyrics sites have the line listed as "...he's mastered choice". Until I see the liner notes of the album, I'm leaving this one as it is.

Even though you laughed your way 'cross town
Even though you left her way 'cross town
Given a choice between the moon and New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
He's mastered choice.....
All of his life his master's toys.
If you get caught between the room in New York City
If you get caught between the moon and New York City
If you get drunk between the moon and New York City
If you get caught between the moon and New York City.
That's what you can do is fall in love.
Best that you can do is fall in love.
That's what you can do---fall in love.
The best that you can do is fall in love.
Wake up and she's still with you
Even though you left her way across town.
Wake up and it's still with you
Even though you left her way across town.
When you get caught between God and New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
Heard as the chorus repeats towards the end of the song
When you get caught between the Moog in New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
Moog, as in Moog synthesizer.
When you get caught between the brew in New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
When you get caught between the mood in New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
When you get caught between those dudes in New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
When you get cock between the moon and New York City.
When you get caught between the moon and New York City.
When you get drunk between the moon and New York City.
When you get caught between the moon and New York City.
When you get f***ed between the moon and New York City
When you get caught between the moon and New York City
When you get off between the mood and New York City
Oh it's a pity, but it's true
or
When you get off between the mood and New York City
I know it's silly, but it's true
or
When you get off between the mood and New York City
I know it's silly, but it's true

I know it's crazy, but it's true
I know it’s crazy, but it’s you
I know it’s crazy, but it’s true
