THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS Istanbul (Not Constantinople)

Istanbul was Constantinople\r
Now its Istanbul, not Constantinople\r
Been a long time gone, Constantinople\r
Now its Turkish delight on a moonlit night\r
\r
Every gal in Constantinople\r
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople\r
So if youve a date in Constantinople\r
Shell be waiting in Istanbul\r
\r
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam\r
Why they changed it I cant say\r
People just liked it better that way\r
\r
So take me back to Constantinople\r
No, you cant go back to Constantinople\r
Been a long time gone, Constantinople\r
Why did Constantinople get the works?\r
Thats nobodys business but the Turks\r
