Born In The City lyrics by Snailhouse

Born in the city, the blue and the grey
It makes me feel like a kid again to wander in this way
So I picture myself as a baby at 35 years old
In a basket on your doorstep starving and cold
But when I'm old and withered what will they say?
"He was kind gentle and funny but he played it safe"

For one night, the procession of us in the limelight
It's not right
Lighting up fires without torch songs
It's not right

The matchmaker makes up the matches
The matches give us our flames

Going to peoples' parties the court and spark is the same

The icebreaker makes conversation
The icemaker freezes our drinks
The dance floor shakes our assets and our expectations sink

For one night, the procession of us in the limelight
It's not right
Lighting up fires without torch songs
It's not right
