Ode to the City
The city has everything you could ever need; availability of all things great and small at any time of the day - she invites you to play There's never a cause or reason to be bored, you can do what you want your way And the city she invites you to stay
The many varied people, and all of their colorful contributions The vibrant sheen of traffic lights reflected on wet pavement, the warm familiar scent of dryer exhaust from a building up the street, and it's funny how the distant wail of sirens can be so comforting
Downtown's got the action, you know the city's where things happen, yeah
Laws get passed while bums sort through trash A couple kiss, protesters smash, an accident occurs while a mother gives birth The girls walk by all dressed so well, one man's in heaven while another's in hell A lawyer passes the bar and the city gets a little more sleazy
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com All these things I need to see, I can't just be an absentee
Take me back to the city, that's where I belong You know the girls all dress so pretty y'all, it's already been too long I wanna be where it's at so I'm going back, just give it to me Take me back 'cause you know that's where I belong
The skaters, the haters, the prophets, the traders the punks, the homeless, and the wall street players The dreads, the suits, the chicks with big boots and 10 piercings in their face hanging out by the U The normals, the Gs, the ones who like to tease, the hicks, the rich, the bike messengers who weave Through all the bars, the cars, the cafés, and the pitch black night... such a beautiful sight
I'm going back to the city, 'cause I know that's my place I'm gonna reacquaint myself with her multicolored face, I'm going home
