This City Loves You Back

I saw a hipster girl walking her cat I saw a pig masked man fall out of a flat This city loves you back This city loves you back I saw a sawn-off police officer huffing up a rail I saw a jet liner reverse and hoover up its vapour trail I saw a school on fire, I saw a stag night choir Watching a seagull and a rat fight to the death over a flyer I saw surgeons laughing at a heart attack Behind a poster claiming this city loves you back This city loves you back I saw the cavalry charging at a peacenik brigade Down the street where all the bands play and vapers parade I saw a bride get busted, I saw a swan get flayed I saw a kid fly off the quay where all the battleships were made I saw a crazy bitch flash her tits on the bonnet of a Rolls I saw a hacksaw cut clean through the queen of souls This city loves you back This city loves you back So, I met you in a nightclub full of casual amputees Who have their heads removed like chickens on weekend sprees I never found a home here, I played too safe to crack I was a wolf in the basement pining for the pack But you dogged me like a shadow now the city loves me back This city loves you back This city loves you back (this city loves you back) This city loves you back (this city loves you back) This city loves you back (this city loves you back) This city loves you back (this city loves you back) This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back This city loves you back
