가사
[Verse 1]
Bells are ringing on your alarm clock
It's six in the morning, man the race don't stop
I just shit, shower, shave
Make it to the station
Waiting for the train
Goddamn train, late again
Hit the streets and they are seething
Ducking, weaving, begging, stealing
Got you kneeling and you're feeling
That you wanted more
[Chorus]
That's how it goes, livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey, ya know I never said it would be pretty
That's how it goes, livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
They don't look back and they don't take no pity
[Verse 2]
Well, I get to the office and delete my spam
Delete me, delete my plans
Working every day for the goddamn man
Sometimes I wonder just who I am
Well, I'm gonna go postal
Gonna have a death toll
Be the headhunter, then I'm gonna move coastal
Everything gonna be just fine
Working every day on my goldmine
[Chorus]
That's how it goes, livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey, ya know I never said it would be pretty
That's how it goes, livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
They don't look back, don't take no pity
[Chorus]
That's how it goes, livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey, ya know I never said it would be pretty
That's how it goes, livin' in the city
Everybody getting down to the nitty-gritty
They don't look back, they don't take no pity
Hey, ya know I never said it would be pretty
