steve ‘n’ seagulls – paradise city lyrics
[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the gr-ss is green and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home
[verse 1]
just an urchin living under the street
i’m a hard case that’s tough to beat
i’m your charity case
so buy me something to eat
i’ll pay you at another time
take it to the end of the line!
rags to riches
or so they say
you gotta keep pushing
for the fortune and fame
you know it’s, it’s all a gamble
when it’s just a game
you treat it like a capitol crime:
everybody doing their time
[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the gr-ss is green
and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home
[verse 2]
strapped in the chair of the city’s gas chamber
why i’m here, i can’t quite remember
the surgeon general say’s it’s hazardous to breathe
i’d have another cigarette
but i can’t see
tell me what you’re gonna believe
[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the gr-ss is green
and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home
[bridge]
so far away
[verse 3]
captain america’s been torn apart
now he’s a court jester
with a broken heart
he said: turn me around
and take me back to the start
i must be losing my mind
are you blind?!
i’ve seen it all a million times
[outro]
i wanna go
i wanna know
oh won’t you please take me home?
i wanna see
i gotta believe
oh won’t you please take me home?
[chorus]
take me down to the paradise city
where the gr-ss is green
and the girls are pretty
oh, won’t you please take me home
