The New York Times Crossword Puzzle Lyrics

I don't care don't give a damn

For sponsorships or brand collabs

But let me say without a doubt

This is the sound of selling out

You don't want to know

How far I'd go

How low I'd stoop

If you only knew

The pandering I'm prepared to do

Cause I have seen my name in shining lights

But I wish it was in black and white

For the world to see immortalized

As a crossword clue in The New York Times

Yes I know my name's too long

I never had a big hit song

And it's a long shot and I'm not proud but

This is the sound of selling out

You don't want to know

How far I'd go

How low I'd stoop

If you only knew

The pandering I'm prepared to do 

Cause I have seen my name in shining lights

But I wish it was in black and white

For the world to see immortalized

As a crossword clue in The New York Times

I swear if I ever see my name

Hinted at on that page

I will bask in validation

The black hole inside me will finally close

And I shall ascend to my heavenly home

Knowing all the pain was worth it

It was worth it

Cause I have seen my name in shining lights

But I wish it was in black and white

For the world to see immortalized

As a crossword clue in The New York Times

I have seen my name in shining lights

But I wish it was in black and white

If I could sneak my way in just one time

As a crossword clue in The New York Times

As a crossword clue in The New York Times
