Rotterdam (or Anywhere) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And the women tug their hair
Like they're trying to prove it won't fall out
And all the men are gargoyles
Dipped long in Irish stout

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The whole place is pickled
The people are pickles for sure
And no one knows if they've done more here
Than they ever would do in a jar

[Chorus]
This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone

[Verse 2]
And everyone is blonde
And everyone is beautiful
And when blondes and beautiful are multiple
They become so dull and dutiful

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And when faced with dull and dutiful
They fire red warning flares
Battle khaki personality
With red underwear

[Chorus]
This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The whole place is pickled
The people are pickles for sure
And no one knows if they've done more here
Than they ever would do in a jar

[Chorus]
This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone

[Chorus]
This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone

[Outro]
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone, alone, alone

This could be Rotterdam
Or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam
Is anywhere
Alone
Alone, alone
