He's a dirty old man, And a dirty old man, He's a dirty old manand a friend of mine.

I'm a dirty old man The mean streets are home, My life is cold,I'll chill you to the bone,

Heart of stone, Have a care, I carry traces of death in myhair,

You know my breath stinks, I leave shit everywhere,

So be aware I'm unfeeling Don't you dare try appealing to mybetter nature,

You better wait, you're missinformed, Ain't nothing warm aboutme,

Cold and gray, concrete clay and steel, And what else is real? Imean the actual deal,

People seem to love living under my hair, Some of them call meLondon,

I'm also known as New York. Anywhere in the world you find me Italk the same bad talk,

Walk the same walk from side to side, You're transparent to me,

There ain't a thing you can hide, Derive glamour from the staminait takes to survive.

You think I didn't know it's over with your face like a rat

Now give me your cash and go Before you're heart brakes,

You're living under my wing And all you got I'm gonna take, I'm adirty old man.

He's a dirty old man and a dirty old man,

He's a dirty old man and a friend of mine.

He's a dirty old man and a dirty old man,

He's a dirty old man and a friend of mine.

I'm a rough old man beyond heart ache, To improve my mood I coulduse an earthquake,

I sit awake for my people to release the pain, So I can knowpeace again In my skin,

sin diceit and mistrust soaked in, I think I might just fussOften drops of woe,

streets flow with tears, I fall down all around your ears.

If I could, if I was made of wood start a fire, no lie,

I can afford to smoke sacred fire, Cos I wouldn't bet on peoplechanging just yet

My eyes are wet and my heart is full of fear and regret,

So you're catching the rough edge of my tongue, I startedyoung,

I got teenagers carrying guns. I hear you wanna hold me to blame,but we're the same,

So for me win society and feel the shame, I'm a rough old man.

He's a dirty old man and a dirty old man,

He's a dirty old man and a friend of mine.

He's a dirty old man and a dirty old man,

He's a dirty old man and a friend of mine.

I'm a rough old man, this is who I am.

He's a dirty old man and a dirty old man,

He's a dirty old man and a friend of mine.
