Bells are ringing on your alarm clock
|
It's six in the morning,
|
man the race don't stop
|
It's just shit, shower,
|
shave just make it to the station
|
Waiting for the train...
|
goddamn train late again
|
Hit the streets and they are seething
|
Ducking, weaving, begging, stealing
|
Got you kneeling and you're feeling
|
That you wanted more
|
|
That's how it goes livin' in the city
|
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
|
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
|
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
|
That's how it goes livin' in the city
|
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
|
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
|
|
Well I get to the office and delete my spam
|
Delete me, delete my plans
|
Working everyday for the goddamn man
|
Sometimes I wonder just who I am
|
Well I'm gonna go postal
|
Gonna have a death toll
|
Be the head hunter
|
Then I'm gonna move coastal
|
Everything's gonna be just fine
|
Working everyday on my gold mine
|
|
That's how it goes livin' in the city
|
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
|
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
|
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
|
That's how it goes livin' in the city
|
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
|
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
|
|
That's how it goes livin' in the city
|
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
|
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
|
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
|
That's how it goes livin' in the city
|
Everybody getting down to the nitty gritty
|
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
|
Hey ya know I never said it would be pretty
