Lyrics

Brooklyn (Celebrate Brooklyn)

[Verse]

The scroll unfurls, we hear the voice

Of Marty Markowitz

Now he's not frontin' The Funky Bunch

He's borough president

[Pre-Chorus]

From the F to the G to the L to the J

Now who knows what that spells?

[Chorus]

Let's celebrate Brooklyn now

Even the Gowanus Canal

Even the Gowanus Canal

Even the Gowanus Canal
