In the City in the Rain

In the city in the rain, you’ve got a beautiful face
In the city in the rain, you vanish without a trace
In the city in the rain, you’ve got mysterious ways
In the city in the rain, I’m gonna spend all my days

I think I’m gonna dance, all night long.
I think I’m gonna dance, ’till the moon goes down.

In the city in the rain, inside a smoky cafe
In the city in the rain, you tell me that you’ll stay
In the city in the rain, you suddenly slip away
In the city in the rain, I’m gonna spend all my days

I think I’m gonna dance, all night long.
I think I’m gonna dance, ’till the moon goes down.

In the city in the rain, I hear the screaming of tires
In the city in the rain, I’m setting myself on fire
In the city in the rain, among the beautiful lights
In the city in the rain, I think I’ll dance all night

I think I’m gonna dance, all night long.
I think I’m gonna dance, ’till the moon goes down.

Slow Show

Standing at the punch table swallowing punch
Can’t pay attention to the sound of anyone
A little more stupid, a little more scared
Every minute more unprepared

I made a mistake in my life today
Everything I love gets lost in drawers
I want to start over, I want to be winning
Way out of sync from the beginning

I wanna hurry home to you
Put on a slow, dumb show for you
And crack you up

So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
God I’m very, very frightened
I’ll overdo it

Looking for the somewhere to stand and stay
I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away
Can I get a minute of not being nervous
And not thinking with my dick

My leg is sparkles, my leg is pins
I better get my shit together, better gather my shit in
You could drive a car through my head in five minutes
From one side of it to the other

I wanna hurry home to you
Put on a slow, dumb show for you
And crack you up

So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
God I’m very, very frightened
I’ll overdo it

You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years, before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
For twenty-nine years

You know I dreamed about you
For twenty-nine years, before I saw you
You know I dreamed about you
I missed you for
For twenty-nine years
