Manhattan Lyrics

Lyric discussion by noiamnotwhereibelong 

Yeah, it's definitely "Gonna stoke it up" not smoke.

And I'm positive it's: "Who needs avenues? Who needs reservoirs? We're gonna show this town how to kiss these stars."

I agree with the Native American theory, but also think it's just about having a good time out in the country, without the restrictions of living in a city.

You can't have campfires legally in cities, and the whole "Who needs avenues? Who needs reservoirs? We're gonna show this town how to kiss these stars." makes it pretty obvious to me.

I can't believe this doesn't have more comments haha, it's my absolute favorite on the album, since I have some Native American heritage and live way out in the country.

Revelry is a close second favorite.

The Kings of Leon are in my top 5 bands of all time.
