lyrics

let my bleary eyes become
crusted over
let me watch the film of
mucous so I
see a better life
for me for you for I

the city will support you
living underground
the city will deport you
if you try to look around

look at him lurking
pray to god he’s fine
I’m blind
to survive

then I ran into a festival of hopeless
brigadiers in gaudy vibrant
scarves and suits and ties
oh gee oh boy oh my

the city’s leather boots will
put you underground
the city’s got a million
ways to get around

the rats and pigs all fix a mighty feast
and dine
and cry
“you’re mine”

the city will support you
living underground
the city will deport you
if you try to look around

the streets cry and
make you wanna die
so die
to survive

now the stripper’s out to dinner
with her lover
while her husband grabs the
key from her and
gives her a kiss goodbye
blind to what’s in her eyes

the city can turn any
life into a lie
the city breaks the heart of
anyone who tries

mercy calls and
begs for a penny while
I avert my eyes
go blind
