From the wonderful (and very useful) "New York Today" column in the NYTimes: “Residents in Queens want a new dog
run, but not if it costs $1 million.”
Here's a parody-tribute: you can sing it to tune of “Da Doo Ron Ron”
Read it on a Wednesday that they’ll
pass a bill
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run
Somebody told me it would cost a mill
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run
Yeah, they’ll pass a bill
Yeah, it costs a mill
And as I walked my dog
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run?
Told me the whole fight had taken
many years
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run
But when I heard the price I didn’t
trust my ears
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run
Yeah, it took some years
Yeah, can’t trust my ears
And when I walked my dog
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run
When I asked them why they started
“well, because”
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run!!!
Then I heard the reasons and they
gave me pause
The new run, run, run, the new run,
run???
Yeah, said well because
Yeah, they gave me paws
Still when I walked my dog
The new run, run, run, the new run, run!!!
