summer in the city

~

summer in the city means cleavage cleavage cleavage

and i start to miss you, baby, sometimes

i've been staying up and drinking in a late night establishment

telling strangers personal things

-

summer in the city, i'm so lonely lonely lonely

so i went to a protest just to rub up against strangers

and i did feel like coming but i also felt like crying

it doesn't seem so worth it right now

and the castrated ones stand in the corner smoking

they want to feel the bulges in their pants start to rise

at the site of a beautiful woman they feel nothing but

anger, her skin makes them sick in the night nauseaous, nauseaous, nauseaous

summer in the city, i'm so lonely lonely lonely

i've been hallucinating you, babe, at the backs of other women

and i tap on their shoulder and they turn around smiling

but there's no recognition in their eyes

oh summer in the city means cleavage cleavage cleavage

and don't get me wrong, dear, in general i'm doing quite fine

it's just when it's summer in the city, and you're so long gone from the city

i start to miss you, baby, sometimes

when it's summer in the city

and you're so long gone from the city

i start to miss you, baby, sometimes
