Wow. Concise and loses none of the song's meaning.

Truly the best format. Kudos.

Istanbul:

not Constantinople

a Turkish delight on a moonlit night





Every girl in Istanbul:

does not live in Constantinople





Old New York:

This is the first time to my recollection that I've seen a double-indented list on my Livejournal friends page. Congratulations, my friend!

Girl from high school

Neither too simple nor too kind



New Wave fan



Since changed -> another kind



Thinks she's Edith Head

Or Helen Gurley Brown



Or other cultural figure (little-known)



Ways to know she's not

Accent in her speech she didn't have growing up



Recent Interactions

Christmas



Reflection in window



Talking to herself





Neither too simple nor too kind





Complicated





Stuck in my mind

Do you believe:

*In magic in a young girl's heart

**How the music can free her whenever it starts

*Like I believe

*In magic

*Believer



It's magic:

*If the music is groovy

*It makes you feel happy like an old-time movie



Magic will:

*Free your soul

**But it's like trying to tell a stranger 'bout rock and roll

*Cue an indefatigable smile, then progress to inexplicable foot-tapping



If you believe in magic:

*Don't bother to choose if it's jug band music or rhythm and blues

*Just go and listen

*Come along with me



We'll dance:

*Until morning 'til there's just you and me

*Tomorrow, sort of late at night



You'll see:

*How the magic's in the music and the music's in me



Believe:

*In the magic of a young girl's soul

*In the magic of rock and roll

*In the magic that can set you free



Talking 'bout:

*Magic

That song lends itself particularly well to the list form, I see - you can just read it out and the song forms in your head. Magic. Ooh - see, I do believe!

You see, this is why I'd rather be alone



Clock

This speech:

*Is my recital



I think:

*It’s very vital

**To rock a rhyme

**That’s right on time



Things that are tricky:

*To rock a rhyme

**That’s right on time



Girls:

*Little one

**Hair is kinda curly

*Really sleazy

* Just say “Please me” or, “Spend some time and rock a rhyme”

**My response

***“It’s not that easy”

*Be cryin’

**’Cause I’m on TV

*Bother my poor father

**’Cause he’s down with me



In New York:

*We can’t hide

**Tinted windows don’t mean nothin’

***They know who’s inside



Things people do:

*Talk

*Try to make us rhyme

*Really hawk

**We just walk

***We have no time

*Take up mostly all of my time

*Naggin’

**They think I’m a star

*Tearin’ what I’m wearin’

*Goin’ too far

*Assume we are thugs

**We are not

*Offer coke and lots of dope

**We just leave it alone



Carol:

*Follows Daryll

**Every gig we play

**Was dismissed and dissed by D

*Is currently jockin’ Jay



It’s like:

*That y’all, but we don’t quit

shouting

all over the place: kicking your can

waving your banner



Things which you, being a big disgrace, have got on your face: mud

blood



Things which you will some day do: be a big man

take on the world

make you some peace



Places back into which somebody better put you: yours



Things which we will rock: you
