Alicia Keys & Stephen Colbert

A take on her hit with Jay-Z, "Empire State of Mind" (one of my favorite tracks of '09)...

"Yeah, I love New York, the king of all the cities
I lived by the Guggenheim til I got myself some kiddies
Moved to Connecticut, bye George Pataki
Volvo to the dry cleaner, picking up my khakis

The shopping mall is close, my community is gated
My shorties are all private-school educated
Home theater system, 60-inch plasma
Clean suburban air is much better for my asthma

Still hit the city, Times Square... I keep it real
Hard Rock Cafe ... for their appetizer deal
M&M's Store, Disney Store... I'm in Heaven
I own this town from 41st to 47

Got tickets to The Lion King, that show is fantastic
Leave half an hour early so I can beat the traffic
I can get home really fast, driver rocks an EZ-Pass
To the land of cheaper gas and the upper middle class"
