[Chorus]
City haunts been hauntin' me
Train tracks keep trackin' me
Sleazeballs eyeballin' me for too long
[Verse 1]
Hackney prick asking for a light
Hey, meet me in the bathroom, okay?
Sold a dream, now we're circlin' down the drain (Yeah)
It's your money, guy, or it's your life
The party's just run out of space
It'd be a lie if I said that I got this place
[Chorus]
City haunts been hauntin' me, ah-ha-ha
Train tracks keep trackin' me, ah-ha-ha

City haunts been hauntin' me, ah-ha-ha
Train tracks keep trackin' me, ah-ha-ha
Sleazeballs eyeballin' me for too long
[Post-Chorus]
Can you do that thing to me? Ah-ha-ha
Sweet song, yeah, sing to me, ah-ha-ha
'Cause it's so rare to find a common mind
Around here
Around here
