Growing Old in the City by The Liptonians Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm growing old in the city
All the birds are running scared
While I am sitting pretty
On the fence that they once had
[Chorus]
And oh, whoa, whoa
All the death, all the piss
All the sweat, all the blood, oh, oh
It's coming out
[Verse 2]
Called the police department
About the boys in a lair
That's smelling up apartments
Then crawling up the stairs
[Chorus]
And oh, whoa, ho
My lungs are caving in
And oh, oh, oh
We breathe it out
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Growing old in the city
Every light, a yellow tint
That flickers 'round my party
And makes us trip up stairs
[Chorus]
And oh, whoa, oh
All the grief, all the lust
All the grit, all the rust, oh, oh
It's seeping out
I'm growing old in the city
All the birds are running scared
While I am sitting pretty
On the fence that they once had
[Chorus]
And oh, whoa, whoa
All the death, all the piss
All the sweat, all the blood, oh, oh
It's coming out
[Verse 2]
Called the police department
About the boys in a lair
That's smelling up apartments
Then crawling up the stairs
[Chorus]
And oh, whoa, ho
My lungs are caving in
And oh, oh, oh
We breathe it out
[Instrumental]
[Verse 3]
Growing old in the city
Every light, a yellow tint
That flickers 'round my party
And makes us trip up stairs
[Chorus]
And oh, whoa, oh
All the grief, all the lust
All the grit, all the rust, oh, oh
It's seeping out
