Dirty Fish

This city's got me in cuffs,
All covered in rust,
I'm enjoying the buzz (falling over!),
Shaking hands with the strange,
Open mouth catching rain,
All the beggars sing and I chime right in.
Its got bars,
Beer sharks,
Its got drug pushers living as stars,
Harbour breeze,
Smells green,
I feel more at home than ever before.
I say,
I want to be,
A dirty fish in a dirty sea.
I say,
I want to be,
A dirty fish in a dirty sea, you know?
A dirty fish,
In a dirty sea.
A dirty fish,
In a dirty sea.
On parade going down the red mile,
Brand new hotels covered in bile,
If this is the antithesis let me put my nick in this,
Little scratch,
Little mark,
Shed the chrysalis.
Its got punks,
Quick tongues,
its got Gangsters flashing their guns.
It reeks,
So clean,
I feel more at peace than ever before.
I say,
I want to be,
A dirty fish in a dirty sea.
I say,
I want to be,
A dirty fish in a dirty sea, you know?
A dirty fish,
In a dirty sea.
A dirty fish,
In a dirty sea.
Let her teeth sink in and wrap you in chains,
Give in everything and rush through your veins,
The city's for the beautiful and deranged,
Filthy dogs,
White tees ripped and stained.
I call you out,
I call you out,
I call them out,
I call us out.
I say,
I want to be,
A dirty fish in a dirty sea.
I say,
I want to be,
A dirty fish in a dirty sea, you know?
A dirty fish,
In a dirty sea.
A dirty fish,
In a dirty sea.
