Lyrics
Sick City
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, she said the crowd just loved you
My name's Angel and I'm sixteen
I really love your band and your funny accent
Sure would like a cruise in your limousine
Then she said how about a rubdown
You're so cute, I'm so mean
The way you hold your guitar really gets me
I can show you tricks that you ain't never seen
Sick City, nobody to love you
Oh but sometimes I can taste you when I'm feeling weak
Sick City, isn't it a pity?
That you can't float above it when the bottom leaks
Oh, Sick City
Hey man how's about a handout
All you, dudes, just loaded down
Just a little sugar man makes me sweeter
I like to sit at home and watch the world go round
Stage-door monkey's on my back
Begging me to save his life
Can't he understand we're not a healing show
We're just here to play some music for the kids tonight
