In the Gutter

Black eyes. Long tails

Rats scuttle through the debris and smells

Chewed gum, fag end

Rough living’s driving me round the bend

One day I’m gonna live on top a mountain with a panoramic view of the sea

And on that day. I’m gonna take you to the summit with me.

And looking up at the stars.

Stars

Stars with you.

 

Bad vibes, no food,

Ignorant people that are hostile and rude

Feel cold, and wet

Looking for a shelter, but I can’t find one yet.

One day I’m gonna wake up in a palace and eat breakfast while I’m lying in bed

And every day I’m gonna make sure that your cosy and fed.

And looking up at the stars.

Stars

Stars with you.

 

Hold me closer, hold me tighter

Hold me up because I’m not a street fighter

Hold my hand while anticipating

As I continue hallucinating

And looking up at the stars.

Stars

Stars with you.
