I remember when we used to say
We're gonna go paint the skyline green
Louis said gonna be right back man
You can count on me

When the sun goes down in the city
Keeping up with the high life
Ain't so easy to do
Ain't so easy to do

Everybody needs something they can go and believe in
If you don't got much, no, don't got much
Go ahead and take some from me man
There's no point in being ashamed of the sun rise when you're young
There's no point in pointing the finger when its already done
But is it better when it lasts forever

When the sun goes down in the city
Keeping up with the high life
Ain't so easy to do
Ain't so easy to do
