This is where the neon street begins to dull
A flicker flame
There’s a dialling of a code north side
Fingers twitch as easy bate
Your coming home so don’t be late

My head is a city
My head is a city
My head is a city baby
If you need somewhere to be
My head is a city, all you need is me

Safety on the sidewalk
Safety in the park
Safety in the dead of night
Safety in the dark

My head is a city baby
If you need somewhere to be
My head is a city, all you need is me

We’re burning up the electricity
Just to keep the city sane
Burning all my bridges
Watching them all go up in flames

My head is a city

I see you now in the harsh and lovely light
Caught with all your flaws and vulnerability
Nothing left to nature
Experience and architecture
Black as your eye mascara

My head is a city
If you want somewhere to be
My head is a city baby, all you need is me

We’re burning the electricity now
Just to keep the city sane
Burning all my bridges
Watch them all go up in flames
Watch them all go up in flames
Watch them all go up in flames
Watch them all go up in flames
Watch them all go up in flames

My head is a city baby
If you want somewhere to be
My head is a city now, all you need is me

There’s no turning back
No second chance
You and your automobile
You’ve got a road romance
A simple change of plan
A simple twist of fate
It takes forever
That’s how long it takes

My head is the city now
My head is the city now
My head is the city now
My head is the city now
My head is the city now
My head is the city now

Come in
Make yourself feel at home
