To The City
Onwards to the city
Where new money awaits
Where new money awaits
Far further from the clatter
Of your past life's mistakes
Of your past life's mistakes
I've seen this all before
You found the right cliff top
For saying goodbye
For saying goodbye
As life swung its elbow
And spat in your eye
And spat in your eye
I've seen this all before
And more.
And more.
I know what can happen
When you're honest and true
When you're honest and true
It's too late to change now
Your years flew too soon.
Your years flew too soon.
I've seen this all before
And more.
And more.
So onwards to the city
Where new money awaits
Where new money awaits
Far further from the clatter
Of your past life's mistakes
Of your past life's mistakes
Yes, I've seen this all before
And more.
And more.
