[Verse 1] I wake up at half past eight Paint on a smile but I'm running late Been up half the night, counting the ways This feeling gets into my veins And sits in my lungs and aches up my bones I unplugged the TV, I turned off the phone Moved to the city, I thought that it loved me The city loves no one, the city is hungry [Pre-Chorus] The city is paid by the hour The city is a grown man who cries in the shower The city's full of space no one can afford The city is homeless, the city is bored [Chorus] But I think I can make a home out of you I think I can hack a city with you Come see me, move with me Spend all our money on rent in the city And why would I wanna be anywhere else? And why would you wanna be anywhere else? Why would I keep this to myself? [Verse 2] You got used to the fumes and the queues And standing close to strangers, and smelling their perfume Or we can go east to a party And reinvent ourselves 'cause we don't know anybody Moved to the city and it followed me home Moved to the city and now I'm all alone The city has children, the city is beauty It's streetlights on wide roads, the current runs through me [Pre-Chorus] The city is paid by the hour The city is a grown man who cries in the shower The city's full of space no one can afford The city is homeless, the city is bored [Chorus] But I think I can make a home out of you I think I can hack a city with you Come see me, move with me Spend all our money on rent in the city And why would I wanna be anywhere else? And why would you wanna be anywhere else? Why would I keep this to myself? But I think I can make a home out of you I think I can hack a city with you Come see me, move with me Spend all our money on rent in the city [Outro] Skip town to town, running Pick up my feet, get out the door, leave in a hurry Pack a bag and we'll leave this place We'll leave this place Seems strange and it's funny Pick up my feet, get out the door, leave in a hurry Pack a bag and we'll leave this place We'll leave this place
