Golden Earring - Skyscraper Hell Of A Town Lyrics

(G.Kooymans/B.Hay)

Can't tell the top from the bottom
All your bad vibes I got 'm
I'm workin' like a dog
Just can't get ahead, no no
Well, all I drink is water
And all I eat is bread

Workin' like a dog, but I just can't get ahead
I gotta room with a view made out of bricks
I'm a pushover for all your pricks and dicks

I'm going up, I'm going down
In this skyscraper hell of a town
I'm going up, I'm going down
In this skyscraper hell

My friends I double-cross 'm
Live and die forgotten
I'm sleeping like a log
Sweating in my bed y'all
And all I drink is water
And all I eat is bread

Workin' like a dog, I just can't get ahead
I gotta room with a view made out of bricks
I'm a pushover for all your pricks and dicks

I'm going up, I'm going down
In this skyscraper hell of a town
I'm going up, I'm going down
In this skyscraper hell of a town
I'm going up, I'm going down
In this skyscraper hell of a town

Skyscraper hell, skyscraper hell
Skyscraper hell, skyscraper hell of a town

I'm going up, I'm going down
Skyscraper hell of a town
