Got jumped by a bottle of scotch I was lying there till the sun came up Opened my eyes dusted myself off No one's around the shops are still shut See my silhouette in the reflection of the window Trying to make out if I'm looking wounded at all I started walking away from the night And into the day to set my shit right In a backseat staring at the city lights In a taxi, man I hate the city life Take me back home I don't care about the fare I just want to go cause I fucking hate it here In a backseat staring at the city lights In a taxi, man I hate the city life Take me back home I don't care about the fare I just want to go cause I fucking hate it here Got myself a coffee shot But the caffeine made me edgy as fuck I thought this place looked nice last night But I was just looking straight through the smog Way too many people and too much shit going on But it all seems alright, at first sight In a backseat staring at the city lights In a taxi, man I hate the city life Take me back home I don't care about the fare I just want to go cause I fucking hate it here In a backseat staring at the city lights In a taxi, man I hate the city life Take me back home I don't care about the fare I just want to go cause I fucking hate it here
