Lyrics
In The 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.
The story started and it ended so quick
Like Jack and Jill but with heroin
Disco lights and a glint in the eye of
Dancing girls at the Candybox night
Queuing up for something under-priced
Working weekends just to pay for drugs
This little story keeps repeating itself
Reading fashion mags to look at the girls
In the city
In the city tonight
You live by the sword
But you die by the knife
I want it all, I want it all for me
These things in life, they just don't come for free
Converse boots and a look on her face
That says if you've got the money then I'm yours tonight
