Hello City by Barenaked Ladies

Hello city

Another night at the palace
'Cause there is nothin' else to do
(Whoa oh, ah ha)
The same people, the same drinks and the same music
The same quicksand
I think this Harbour Town is waist deep and sinking fast

Hello city, you've found an enemy in me
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Du du du du du du
Hello city, hello city
(Hello city)

Second night at the warehouse
And my gap turtleneck just reeks
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
From the liquor room upstairs to the changeroom
To the doom and gloom of the hotel room
I think this seaside beerhall should sink into the bay

Hello city, you've found an enemy in me
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Scoob, scoob scooby doo
Hello city, hello city
(Hello city)

Maybe I caught you at a bad time
(Ah, ha)
Maybe I should call you back next week
(Ah, ha)
Maybe half the fault was mine that
(Ah ha)
The sun didn't shine on Barrington Street

It's three o'clock in the morning
And I'm hungry so let's eat
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Climb down three flights, to the streetlights
And the bar fights, we're just takin' in the sights
I hope tomorrow, that I wake up in my own bed

Hello city, oh you've found an enemy in me
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Du du duu
Hello city, hello city
(Hello city)

Su pa du pa du
Du du pa pa pa
What a good place to be
No don't believe them now, they speak a different language
It's never been happy again
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
It's happy hour again
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Hello city
(Whoa oh, whoa oh)
Hello city
Hey
