Istanbul (Not Constantinople) (LP版) 歌詞
Istanbul (Not Constantinople) (LP版) - They Might Be Giants
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul' not Constantinople
Been a long time gone' Constantinople
Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night
Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul' not Constantinople
So if you've got a date in Constantinople
She'll be waiting in Istanbul
Even old New York
Was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way
So take me backto Constantinople
No' you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone' Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works
That's nobody's business but the Turks'
Even old New York
Was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul' not Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works
That's nobody's business but the Turks'
So take me backto Constantinople
No' you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone' Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works
That's nobody's business but the Turks'
