Central in My Heart (feat. Josh Gad)

In the middle of Manhattan There's a spot unlike the rest An actual oasis It's like New York, but undressed I'm talking 'bout a place that all the bustle seems to pass What's this place I speak of? Why, I'm so glad you asked It's Central Park It's a haven, it's a jewel Central Park And it even has a pool The city's little refuge filled with kind of art and art And guess what, it's central in my heart The cops patrol on horsies as the kiddos hide their weed Be cool, be cool There's tennis players deucin', and he just deuced for free Good job See rollerbladers tripping, yogis doing downward dog And truant students skipping while their WASPY mothers jog Central Park Built in 1857 Central Park Where all rats go to heaven It used to be a village, but no one talks about that part (dark chapter) Anywho, Central in my heart And in this gorgeous haunt You'll find all you'd ever want Picnics on the giant lawn Rowboats floating on the pond Carts with churros, mangoes too Hey, halal, hello to you Shakespeare plays, folksy tunes Bucket drummers, fun cartoons People play and people sing That guy won't do anything The park's a meeting spot A melting pot It's like the souvenir I bought An equalizer An exerciser A perfect place to wear my visor Central Park Where the animals can talk Central Park My mistake they cannot talk Grandiose and glorious, unlike any place on Earth Where else can your son and daughter Splash in dirty hot dog water? Here at the midpoint A park that's so central The name's not that clever But screw it, whatever It's central in my heart
