eli waltz - city boy lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
maybe i don’t know it all
the city made me ten feet tall
my head was fed with grand ideas
but my body sank, my eyes shed tears

[chorus]
mortal men kick and fight
drowned in holy streetlamp light

[verse 2]
the moon, she whispers, “why, oh why
can’t the city boy learn to say goodnight?”
“workin’ to the bone is good”
said the boss to the boy, and the boy said he would

[chorus]
mortal men kick and fight
drowned in holy streetlamp light

[refrain]
ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh

[verse 3]
i was only four years old
but the liar told me more is more
and desire once was wrong
but now this world, on, it spins on
[verse 4]
and i washed my hands, i closed my eyes
i looked away from city plights
and tired heads go to sleep
seein’ no evil at their feet

[chorus]
mortal men kick and fight
drowned in holy streetlamp light

[refrain]
ooh, ooh, ooh
ooh, ooh, ooh

[outro]
scales fall from my eyes, it’s true
when i look towards the mountains blue
