Jake Shears - Creep City lyrics

[Verse 1] You said to come and sort your mind But did you mean it?, Ooh, but did you mean it? Then warmed the bread and poured the wine I thought I’d seen it all, until you broke that seventh wall [Pre-Chorus] I said I’d hang on for the ride Now I’m hanging on for dear life Is that a real knife? [Chorus] Get me out of this creep city I’m flat broke and I don’t need pity right now Just get me out, out, out, out All the dogs in the back been smothered And these cats don’t make good lovers This town’s on cursed ground, ground, ground, ground [Verse 2] Was the judge not clear? Just have a look at them ears [?] Full of ice cream sundaes Funny no one wondered who’s thumb I was under Never gave a goddamn, I gave you 21 grand Cause baby I love you more than the trash can [Pre-Chorus] I said I’d give it one more try Now I’m giving up the good life I’d make a bad wife [Chorus] Get me out of this creep city I’m flat broke and I don’t look pretty right now Just get me out, out, out, out All the dogs in the back been smothered And these cats don’t make good lovers This town’s on cursed ground, ground, ground, ground [Bridge] And if there’s a sign to show me from this world back to mine Or tell me you’ll try, or at least please reply Sincerely I’ll be waiting, ’til I die [Outro] Creep city No I’m never gonna say goodbye [?] Sin city But something is alive
