Inner City Lyrics

Caught you on your side

In the inner city

Fire's up, it's nothin' new

Well maybe to you

I'm just playin' too

Shaking hands, forget about it

Watch your step (at the sign)

And taste the solstice pains

With no sense of shame

So it goes, mon cœur, just give a name

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

But we can't fall back in time

I watch your eyes, love

Regard the inner city

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

(But we can't) fall back in time

I watch your eyes love

Regard the inner city

Harbinger of metro vibes

In the inner city

Bougie tropes and played out jive

Itchin' for an escape

The subway line runs away

(Oh, it's just Vertigo, Scotty)

I'll be your favorite frenemy

Just tell me Amy, what'd you think

Of all that green jazz they played?

Now do a double take

She'll set ya free in a day

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

But we can't fall back in time

I watch your eyes, love

Regard the inner city

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

(But we can't) fall back in time

I watch your eyes, love

Regard the inner city

Try and put a filter on it

But you're brain just can't comprehend

The negative

Can't–say–you–won't–not–do–it again

This no-mind automated factory will run to no end

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

But we can't fall back in time

I watch your eyes, love

Regard the inner city

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

(But we can't) fall back in time

I watch your eyes, love

Regard the inner city

I won't spend a night again

Five out of ten

Dante turns his back on her

Ev'ry now and again

I watch your eyes, love

(But we can't) fall back in time

I watch your eyes, love

Regard the inner city
