But you're still the one pool
Where I'd happily drown

- He likes New York and talks about it positively

So he likes and dislikes New York.

Because Kermit is from a childhood classic, the now-grown ups has a nostalgia effect with the song. Which will make people listen to it

I therefore think that if it just were a man singing the song instead of Kermit.

Tone
- talking with a tone
this makes the text more significant, and you listen more to the text.
- quiet
- vulnerable

Mood
- Starts with how he feels about New York:
New York, I love you

But you're bringing me down

New York, I love you

But you're bringing me down

- simple music = you hear the text more
- sad but true, and full ouf doubt

Maybe mother told you true

And they're always be somebody there for you

And you'll never be alone

But maybe she's wrong

And maybe I'm right
