The Truth Ain't Pretty

[00:29.30] I'm always putting the last things first
[00:30.55] 'S why I'm starting out with the second verse
[00:35.85] I used to think crazy but now I think fast
[00:40.95] And I ain't in first place but I'm made to last
[00:48.05] Get down to the gritty
[00:53.18] Here in New York City
[00:56.72] The truth ain't pretty after all
[01:00.22] I'm always repeating myself again,
[01:08.33] I'm always repeating myself again
[01:14.48] Ya tell me I'm a loser, now I need to win
[01:20.13] Well I ain't no saint and that ain't no sin
[01:26.10] This town's got no pity
[01:32.02] Ya feel high and then shitty
[01:34.63] The truth ain't pretty after all
[01:38.38] Right down to the gritty
[01:43.17] In New York City
[01:46.25] The truth ain't pretty -
[01:49.19] After all these years I still wake up on the floor
[01:53.33] Have we learned nothing here, they don't go away
[01:54.37] The troubles, the bars, the whores - the Big Apple, rotten to the core
[02:27.56] Always repeating myself again (Always repeating myself again)
[02:31.15] I'm always repeating myself again (Always repeating myself again)
[02:36.63] Ya tell me I could use a little discipline (Always repeating myself again)
[02:42.35] But I feel like crawling right outta my skin
[02:45.84] Still down with the gritty
[02:51.60] Still in New York City
[02:55.46] Still the truth ain't pretty after all
[02:58.97] Get down to the gritty
[03:03.51] In New York City
[03:06.88] The truth ain't pretty after all
[03:10.55] Aint pretty - after all
[03:16.51] Truth aint pretty - after all
[03:22.13] Aint pretty - after all
[03:31.61]
