In the City

The story started and it ended so quick
 Like Jack and Jill but with heroin
 Disco lights and a glint in the eye of
 Dancing girls at the Candybox Night
 Queuing up for something under priced
 Working weekends just to pay for drugs
 This little story keeps repeating itself
 Reading fashion mags to look at the girls
 In the city, in the city tonight
 You live by the sword but you die by the knife
 The story started and it ended so quick
 Like Jack and Jill but with heroin
 Disco lights and a glint in the eye of
 Dancing girls at the Candybox Night
 I want it all; I want it all for me
 These things in life they just don't come for free
 Converse boots and a look on her face
 That says if you've got the money then I'm yours tonight
 In the city, in the city tonight
 You live by the sword but you die by the knife
 In the city, in the city tonight
 In the city, in the city tonight
 You live by the sword but you die by the knife
 In the city, in the city I love
 In the city, in the city I love
