Stranglers - Summer In The City lyrics

Hot town summer in the city

Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty

Been down isn't it a pity

Doesn't seen to be a shadow in the city

All around me people looking half dead

Choking on the sidewalk, it's hotter than a match head

At night it's a different town

Go out and find a girl

Come on come on and dance all night

Just what you need, it will be alright

And babe don't you know it's a pity

The days can't be like the nights

In the summer in the city

In the summer in the city

Cool town meeting in the city

Dressed so fine and looking so pretty

Cool cat looking for a kitty

Gonna look in every corner of the city

'till I'm wheezing at the bus stop

Running up the stairs gonna meet you on the roof top

At night it's a different town, go out and find a girl

Come on come on and dance all night

Just what you need it will be alright

And babe don't you know it's a pity

The days can't be like the night

In the summer in the city

In the summer in the city
