Lyrics[]

New York Citizen 1: Something's strange in the air today
The sun is gone and the clouds turned gray
Just what's comin' is hard to say
I don't know

New York Citizen 2: There's a battle above the street
The ground is rumblin' below our feet
The sky's turned red and I feel the heat
Gotta go

New York Citizen 1: "Who can save us?" a city sings
New York Citizen 2: We need the hope that salvation brings
New York Citizen 1: You have the power to find the light
New York Citizens 1 & 2: Avengers assemble and fight the fight!

New York Citizens: Save the city, help us win
Save us all from the state we're in
New York Citizen 1: Things look dark, but I know this can't be the end
New York Citizens: No, my friend, this can't be the end, because...
New York Citizens 1 & 2: There's a future, and I know then
With the strength you bring us, we'll rise again
Avengers unite, 'cause we've got to hear you say (got to hear you say)
"I could do this all day!"
(Save the city, help us win
Save us all from the state we're in)

New York Citizen 1: The day looks tough, but we're New York strong
New York Citizen 2: And eight million people just can't be wrong
New York Citizen 1: We love all kinds, but Loki, you don't belong
New York Citizens 1 & 2: So get gone

New York Citizen 2: The rent and garbage are both sky-high
New York Citizen 1: But "I love New York!" is our battle cry
New York Citizen 2: We're ready to fight, never have to ask why
New York Citizens 1 & 2: Bring it on

New York Citizen 2: Yes, the city is on the brink
New York Citizen 1: And it may smell, but we like that stink
New York Citizen 2: We lived through the '80s, and this too shall pass
New York Citizens 1 & 2: Avengers assemble and kick some ass!

New York Citizens: Save the city, help us win
Save us all from the state we're in
New York Citizen 1: Things look dark, but I know this can't be the end
New York Citizens: No, my friend, this can't be the end, because...
New York Citizens 1 & 2: There's a future, and I know then
With the strength you bring us, we'll rise again
Avengers unite, 'cause we've got to hear you say

Captain America: "I could do this all day!"
New York Citizens: Save the city, help us win
Save us all from the state we're in

New York Citizens: The Hulk is incredible, smashing things up
While Iron Man takes to the sky (Takes to the skies)
Captain America's strong, and that Thor is a god
And Lord knows they're easy on the eyes

Black Widow's a knockout who can knock you out
And when Ant-Man flies, you won't hear a sound
While Hawkeye seems cool, like a really nice guy
He just wish that New York wasn't their battleground

Thor: I've got to get the Tesseract!
Ant-Man: The battle's just begun
Black Widow: We'll conquer the Chitauri
Iron Man: And get shawarma when we're done
Hawkeye: Just how are we to fight them?
Captain America: We'll do it as a team
First Thor, unleash your lightning
Then Natasha, that's your cue
Thor & Black Widow: Yes!
Captain America: Then Hawkeye, hit the bull's-eye
There's no better shot than you
Hawkeye: Right!
Captain America: Tony, you've got nukes to catch
Be careful not to crash
Iron Man: Yep!
Captain America: And Hulk, you know the magic word is...
Avengers: Hulk, you know the magic word is...
All: Hulk, you know the magic word is...
Hulk: Smash! Smash! Smash!

All: Save the city, help us win
Save us all from the state we're in
Things look dark, but I know this can't be the end
New York Citizens 1 & 2: Can't be the end!
All: If the city is trashed when you take your bow
New York Citizens 1 & 2: We'll blame you then, but you're good for now
Avengers unite, 'cause we've got to hear you say
All: Got to hear you
Got to hear you
Got to hear you say
Captain America, New York Citizens 1 & 2: "I could do this all day!"
(Save the city, help us win
Save us all from the state we're in)
"I could do this all day!"
(Got to hear you say
"We can do this all day!")
