Scumbag City
The Strypes
There's empty cans on river street
Scumbag city blues
Sunday morning's indiscreet
Saturday left clues
Last night's scraps and fifthy slaps
Need hold no excuse
Are you cutting out or holding back
A loop hole or a noose
Get me out
Get me out
Cause I'm here to lose
Get me out
Get me out
Of this scumbag city
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Just another howlin' wolf
On the killing floor below
And no lie you'll find in the first line I should have quit you long ago
All those angel eyes with their red neck ties
Wanna see me fall of my face
And no lie you'll find I dispase everything about this place
Get me out
Get me out
Cause I'm here to lose
Get me out
Get me out
Of this scumbag city
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
And when you're lying in your hotel think "good riddance to that"
Something get inside you, something pulls you back
And it ain't the one way system that got you coming back around
It's all them friends and family keeping them size eights on the ground
There's empty cans on river street
Scumbag city blues
Sunday morning feels complete when I get back to you
I could skip and give a miss
But that I'd never choose
Cause even trought I take the piss
I'm glad the future's blue
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
Scumbag city blues
