    Every girl form Constantinople loves in Istanbul.

    Old New York was once New Amsterdam.

    Tasmania was van Diemen's Land

    Thailand was Siam

    Cambodia was Khmer

    Istanbul was Constantinople
    Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
    Been a long time gone, Constantinople
    Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night

    I love me some Turkish delight.
