Paul Kelly - Every *****ing City Lyrics
We argued on the channel train to ParisThe vin rouge helped us make it sweet againBut by the time that we got down to LyonEverything I said was wrong and you cursed me in the rainWe split up for a while in BarcelonaWe met up six days later in MadridI was hoping that the break would make things go a little better for usAnd for a little while it almost didNow I'm in a bar in CopenhagenAnd i'm trying hard to forget your nameAnd I'm staring at the label on a bottle of cervezaAnd every *****ing city feels the sameYou said to call you when I got to LondonA French girl told me that you'd left a noteI said to her "I like your accent" and she thought I sounded funnySo we ended up drinking in SohoFoolishly I followed you to DublinLike a ghost I walked the streets of Temple BarAnd all the bright young things were throwing up their Guinness in the guttersAnd once I thought I saw you from afarNow I'm in a nightclub in HelsinkiAnd they're playing La Vida Loca once againAnd I can't believe I'm dancing to this crap but I'm a chance hereAnd every *****ing city sounds the sameAt a cafe in the port of AmsterdamAn E-mail from you said you'd gone to RomeFor a minute I thought maybe but my funds were running lowAnd anyway it sounded like you weren't aloneSo I headed north until I got to HamburgA chilly city suits a troubled soulAnd on the Reeperbahn I paid a woman far too muchTo kick me out before I'd even reached my goalNow I'm in a restaurant in StockholmAnd the waiter here wants me to know his nameAnd I can order sandwiches in seven different languagesBut every *****ing city looks the sameArriverderci, au revoir, aufwiedersen, hasta la vista babyYeah, every *****ing city's just the same
