Growing Old in the City by The Liptonians Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2011

[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
