New York City Man

„When I was a young man no bigger than this
A chocolate egg cream was not to be missed
(…)
For fifty cents you got a shot –
chocolate bubbles up your nose
That made it easier to deal with knife fights
and kids pissing in the street
(…)
So the next time you’re in Brooklyn –
Please say hello for me
At Totonno’s for Pizza and ice cream at Al and Shirley’s“

Lou Reed, 2. März 1942 – 27. Oktober 2013
