Hell A by The Suburbs Lyrics
A person can get into some strange affairs
Trying to survive in this city, you know
But you gotta eat, and I guess you just get cold
Don't even know the people you associate with really
Oh, the world is wide but people are so much the same
A feature altered here and there and there you stand
You're in New York, you're in Salt Lake, you're in Hell A
Miles of desert separate you, and miles of sea
Ah, the sea! Where whales and sharks roam and no man lives
And where are you? Not home, and that's for sure. But why?
Everybody, when I sing this song
Must dance
Girl, it's a rough life
You better find some friends
Of the right type
"Lip to lip, you do to please
Now turn your face and catch it on cheek
Then skin to skin, pop! it's in
(you're not a virgin)
They offer money for a good feeling then no marriage!
(you're not a virgin)
We are all virgins
69 Billy Club law to ticket number
Love is a Hallmark card store present
Surprise!
Gift, paper ribbon on the holidays
Like seasons greetings, merry holidays
Merry Labor Day, merry Halloween
Or tricks thumb tack dipped in ca ca" *
Everybody, when I sing this song
Must dance
A dream fell this side of paradise
A girl
Was she too beautiful?
Pour that drink right down the sink
Don't get down, get rowdy
Like L.A.'s busiest cowboy
Drown and sink he's on the brink
The stud well hung lost his shootin' gun
It's shriveled up with heroin
The hero's done up in drag tonight
And the girls just want to fight fight fight
Everybody, when I sing this song
Must dance
The fire at my back
Yeah, it did me well
A token laugh
Was it too musical?
Trying to survive in this city, you know
But you gotta eat, and I guess you just get cold
Don't even know the people you associate with really
Oh, the world is wide but people are so much the same
A feature altered here and there and there you stand
You're in New York, you're in Salt Lake, you're in Hell A
Miles of desert separate you, and miles of sea
Ah, the sea! Where whales and sharks roam and no man lives
And where are you? Not home, and that's for sure. But why?
Everybody, when I sing this song
Must dance
Girl, it's a rough life
You better find some friends
Of the right type
