She’s Like A City

Don McGlashan

She's like a city, like a city I come to
She's like a city, like a city I drive through

There is a down town
Where advertisements shout enticements and threats

There are a suburbs
Where nothing much grows and the paint's still wet

There are places that I run to, 'cause they're safe
And there are places I won't go

She's like a city, like a city I come from
She's like a city, like a city where I belong

Sometimes I'll walk past a doorway
Where there's a freak show going on

Or I'll stand on a bridge above a highway
And below me a stream of engines and they're singing:

We can't take this place
But we take this place
And we love this place
But we hate it here, let's go away

But we don't go away
We think we'll stay
Will she let us stay?
Will she take us in?

Like a city, like a city, like a city
She's like a city, like a city, like a city

She's like a city, like a city, like a city
She's like a city, like a city, like a city
She's like a city
