Sitting Dove - Sleaze lyrics

Came out west way too long ago And almost...all I've seen is sleaze At night it's heavy in the air 
In daylight a disease I knew that beast was out here Way before I headed west I just thought that it would take longer For me to lie down in its soft nest But the sunshine and those desert palms And all of my big dreams 
I'll be the first one to admit it
 I was hooked way too easily I came out west way too long ago And almost all I've seen is sleaze At night it's heavy in the air 
In daylight a disease It infects, inhabits invisibly
 Beamin' down every street
 Waves...Bouncin' off space satellites Screaming from computer screens Scrambling brain waves, genetic codes Mutating how we think The media's designed to do one thing Let ma** hypnosis ring From the great white way of Wall Street To that theatre called DC Behind it all is Hollywood Not the place, the global scene New Delhi, London, sweet Paris Shanghai, Mumbai, N-Y-C 
Rio, Sydney, Nairobi
 Cape Town, Bogota, and Belize Chi-town, Frankfurt, Tel Aviv Jerusalem - we must find peace Cairo, Hong Kong, Miami Manilla, Seoul, Buenos Aires Berlin, Jakarta, Tripoli Bangkok, Zurich, and Beijing Moscow, Mexico City But I hear Brussels's now the place to be Like Rome and Athens of antiquity It's rippling now, the monster seethes But they never had like this you see When we say global we mean actually Came out west way too long ago And almost all I've seen is sleaze At night it's heavy in the air 
In daylight a disease I knew that beast was out here Way before I headed west I just thought that it would take longer For me to lie down in its soft nest Now I've tried hard to sedate myself With fine wine and greenery Why? Not because I have to Just best not to feel or see All the selfish souls and double talk And my complicity 
And how you can't hardly trust an-y-one Without payin' a way high fee We live on the dark side of the silver screen 
To hit that red carpet, people do those things Then hide those dirty secrets behind some bling Hot lights k** the pain of having lost something Came out west way too long a-go And almost all I've seen is sleaze At night it's heavy in the air In daylight a disease The virus now permeates everywhere From sea to shining sea 
Ya think you're safe, you best beware Proof's that you're hearin' me Ad-lib Outro: You know who I am. You're with me...
