New track written by Fiona Apple to feature in ‘Central Park’ season finale

Ahead of the finale’s release, a snippet of the scene featuring Apple and Lucky’s song has been shared on YouTube.

Each episode of Central Park contains music from different artists. Over the course of season one, original songs from the likes of Meghan Trainor, Cyndi Lauper and Aimee Mann have appeared.

NME hailed Central Park as “TV’s most wholesome new show” in a recent feature, saying that it “might be the most positive TV show made in eons!”

Last year, Apple contributed a new track to a Halloween episode of Bob’s Burgers. The special also featured the character Eugene ‘Gene’ Belcher dressed up as “Fiona Applesauce”, whom he described as “Fiona Apple’s saucy aunt”.

Meanwhile, Fiona Apple recently announced a physical version of ‘Fetch The Bolt Cutters’.

Fiona Apple pens music for ‘Bob’s Burgers’ creators’ new animated series ‘Central Park’

Apple co-wrote the song ‘New York Doesn’t Like Your Face’, which will appear in episode 10. You can listen to music from the first two episodes below.

Central Park was created by Loren Bouchard (Bob’s Burgers), Josh Gad, and Nora Smith and stars Leslie Odom Jr., Kristen Bell, Josh Gad, Kathryn Hahn, Tituss Burgess, Daveed Diggs, and Stanley Tucci in voice roles. The animated series was announced earlier this year.

The official synopsis for Central Park reads: “Central Park is an animated musical comedy about the Tillermans, a family that lives in, and are the caretakers of, Central Park.

“Owen, the park manager, and Paige, his journalist wife, raise their kids Molly and Cole in the world’s most famous park, while fending off a hotel heiress Bitsy Brandenham and her long-suffering assistant Helen, who would love nothing more than to turn the park into condos.”

Watch a trailer for the show below.

Meanwhile, Dave Grohl recently praised Fiona Apple for helping him get through the current coronavirus lockdown.

When it was posed to him that music seems to be getting a lot of people through the lockdown, he replied: “Yeah no, that’s true. I mean, thank God for the new Fiona Apple record! It’s beautiful, and it’s been a long time coming.”

Released last month, ‘Fetch The Bolt Cutters’ was Apple’s first album in eight years. In a four-star review, NME’s Charlotte Krol said of the project: “[It] will cut straight to the gut for Apple fans old and new and leave behind indelible messages about her life and illustrious career, now spanning two decades. It’s an intoxicating listen – and one of her best.”

Skepta – Shutdown lyrics

[Intro: Drake]
Man’s never been in Marquee when it’s shutdown eh? Trusss me daddi
(Man’s never been in)

[Hook: Skepta]
When it’s shutdown
That’s not me and it’s shutdown
Ring ring pussy, it’s shutdown
Fashion week and it’s shutdown
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it’s shutdown
Touch the road and it’s shutdown
Boy Better Know and it’s shutdown

[Verse 1: Skepta]
Yeah, take time
If a man wanna try me, no time
Usain Bolt when I run up on stage
I pick up the mic and it’s reload time
Don’t know your songs but they know mine
That’s why I got gigs just like Joe Grind
After the show I be rolling mine
Don’t care bout the no smoking sign
They try to steal my vision
This ain’t a culture, it’s my religion
God knows I don’t wanna go prison
But if a man wanna try me, trust me, listen
Me and my Gs ain’t scared of police
We don’t listen to no politician
Everybody on the same mission
We don’t care about your -isms and schisms

[Hook: Skepta]
Cause it’s shutdown
That’s not me and it’s shutdown
Ring ring pussy, it’s shutdown
Fashion week and it’s shutdown
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it’s shutdown
Touch the road and it’s shutdown
Boy Better Know and it’s shutdown

[Verse 2: Skepta]
You wanna act like a G for the camera
You say you’re Muslim, you say you’re Rasta
Say you don’t eat pork, don’t eat pussy
Liar, you’re just a actor
Blud, you’re not on your deen
And if Selassie saw you he would say
“Blud take off the red gold and green”
Them man are soft just like ice cream
Seen? Start moving correctly
If you don’t wanna upset me, you get me?
You tryna show me your Fendi
I told you before, this shit don’t impress me
I bet I make you respect me
When you see the mandem are selling out Wembley
Roll deep in a blacked out Bentley
Pull up outside like “wah gwan sexy”

[Hook]
Yeah, and it’s shutdown
That’s not me and it’s shutdown
Ring ring pussy, it’s shutdown
Fashion week and it’s shutdown
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it’s shutdown
Touch the road and it’s shutdown
Boy Better Know and it’s shutdown

[Skit]
A bunch of young men all dressed in black dancing extremely aggressively on stage, it made me feel so intimidated and it’s just not what I expect to see on prime time TV

[Verse 3: Skepta]
I’m in a different class
When I get through I’mma bring my dargs
2 by 2, man a walk on the ark
Sittin’ at the front, just like Rosa Parks
Trust me, you don’t wanna see me get dark
Upset cause man are way up right now
And the shit happened all so fast
I was in Paris, shut down l’Arc
New York, shut down Central Park
Talk about London, yo Frisco where shall I start?
Walked in, spat ten 16 bars
And each and every one of them came from the heart
None of my lyrics are stolen
“Go on then, go on then”, that’s my slogan
Wanna know how I did it with no label
No A-list songs, and I told them

[Hook]
Blud, I just shutdown
That’s not me and it’s shutdown
Ring ring pussy, it’s shutdown
Fashion week and it’s shutdown
Went to the show sitting in the front row
In a black tracksuit and it’s shutdown
Touch the road and it’s shutdown
Boy Better Know and it’s shutdown

[Outro: Drake]
Link up Daddy
All right
Yo tomorrow I’m gonna come scoop you, we’ll go to Biz’s
Yeah for sure
All right
Dun know

Tony Bennett – The Lady Is A Tramp (Tony Bennett Celebrates 90 Album)

She gets too hungry, for dinner at eight (I am starving)
She loves the theater, but she never comes late
I never bother, with people that I hate
That’s why this chick is a tramp

She doesn’t like crap games, with barons and earls
Won’t go to Harlem, in ermines and pearls
And I definitely won’t dish out dirt, with the rest of those girls (Thank-you)
That’s why the lady is a tramp

I love the free, fresh wind in my hair
Life without care, oh I’m so broke, it’s old
I hate California, it’s crowded and damp
That’s why the lady is a tramp (I am a tramp)

Sometimes I go to Coney Island, oh the beach is divine
And I love the Yankees, Jeeter’s just fine
I follow Rogers and Heart, she sings every line
That’s why the lady is a tramp

I love a prizefight, that isn’t a fake (no fakes)
I love to row boat with you and your wife on Central Park lake
She goes to Opera and stays wide awake (yes, I do)
That’s why this lady is a tramp

She likes the green (green) grass (grass) under her shoes
What can I lose, ’cause I got no dough (oh no?)
I’m all alone when I lower my lamp
That’s why the lady is a tramp

Go!

I love your free fresh, I love your handkerchief in my hair
Life without care, but I am so broke, that’s oak
Hates California it’s cold and it’s damp
That’s why the lady is a tramp
That’s why this lady is a tramp
That’s why the lady is a tramp

Pitbull – Can’t Have lyrics

[Intro: Pitbull (Steven A. Clark)]
Ape Drums, Steven Clark, and yours truly
Mr. W.W., haha!
I told you once (Can’t Have)
I tell you twice (Can’t Have)
The grass looks greener on the other side
Til you get to the other side, haha

[Pre-Hook: Steven A. Clark]
Well you’re happy now
And I’m so glad, cause you’re so right
Well then I guess we always
Want what we can’t have
Why does loneliness hurt so bad
And girl I want you back
Well then I guess we always
Want what we can’t have

[Hook: Steven A. Clark]
Can’t Have
Can’t Have
Can’t Have
Ohhhhhh!

[Verse 1: Pitbull]
I seen Central Park, from my hotel room
And it’s got me thinking
About the crazy things we use to do
For the fame, for the power, for the fortune
Ducked prison, ducked death, I’m fortunate
It was all a dream, now I wake up and live it
Thinking that the sky was the limit
Til I figured out there was footprints on the moon
Now I’m like get out the way, bitch move

[Bridge: Pitbull]
Papo I’m live, fuck the other side
I’m always gonna rep 305 til I die
Everyone knows that this chico gon’ ride
Now I won’t kill you but I’ll watch you die
I’m always gonna rep 305 til I die
Everyone knows that this chico gon’ ride
Now I won’t kill you but I’ll watch you die
Everyone wants what they can’t have right?

[Pre-Hook]

[Hook 2: Steven A. Clark]
Can’t Have, Can’t Have
Can’t Have, Can’t Have
Can’t Have, Can’t Have
Can’t Have, Ohhhhhh!

[Verse 2: Pitbull]
Looking at my backyard, now all I see the ocean
Not bad for a kid that grew up with roaches
Drama, chaos, and different coaches
That’s what allows me to see through these vultures
First we shining shoes
Then we own the shoe shop
First we make the sandwich
Then we own the restaurants
First then we the clean houses
Then we own every house on the block
Not bad for some immigrants

[Pre-Hook + Hook 2]

[Outro: Steven A. Clark]
Well I guess we always want
What we can’t have
