[Verse 1]
New York City's like a pop-up book
I stand right in for another look
Lest we forget
Some are puppeteers, most are marionettes

[Chorus]
Gargoyle cornerstone
He don't feel no pain
'Cause he's made of stone
Gargoyle cornerstone
Like a fisherman
Hudson River's frozen
Gargoyle cornerstone
He don't feel no pain
'Cause he's made of stone
Gargoyle cornerstone
All the weight of the world
Is upon his shoulders

[Vese 2]
Through the concrete English Rose
She spends the whole week getting stoned
Lest we forget
Some are puppeteers, most are marionettes

[Chorus]
Gargoyle cornerstone
He don't feel no pain
'Cause he's made of stone
Gargoyle cornerstone
Like a fisherman
Hudson River's frozen
Gargoyle cornerstone
He don't feel no pain
'Cause he's made of stone, yeaheaheah
Gargoyle cornerstone
All the weight of the world
Is upon his shoulders

[Outro]
New York City's like a pop-up book
I stand right in for another look
Lest we forget
Some are puppeteers, most are marionettes
