No, we don't smoke marijuana
No, it is not for our health
It's just because we don't wanna
and now you can go screw yourself

Yes, we are New York jews
spared by the holocaust,
haunted by what we've lost
keeping in time

Yes, we are you and me
Making humanity
Shining from sea to sea
Condemned to be free

We are the life of the party
We're your idea of a good time
You will be sorry if you try to say
We're not God's sweet gift straight to mankind

Yes, we are Jersey girls
Leanin' on what we got
Frightened by what we're not
Holding it in

Yes, we are you and me
Making humanity
Shining from sea to sea
Condemned to be free

Always to be on the edge
Often to be on time
Never to be bored or lazy
Rapture to be on your mind

Good Lord, we love our sweet coffee
On down times we love our sweet tea
Now we've never smelled any cocaine
But the appeal we're beginning to see

Yes, we are out of town
Clutching the wedding gown
Knee-deep in lost and found
Never letting it go

Yes, we are you and me
Making humanity
Shining from sea to sea
Condemned to be free
