Lyrics
Buying hotdogs from
the man with the mustache
Give me mustard, give me
ketchup, give me relish
In the city, on the street
with the people
All around me wearing
suits and high heels
chorus-Oh, please don't go
to Mexico
Hear the buses, hear the
cars hear the taxi's
Moving fast no time
for relaxing
Lots of bands, lots of
parties, always open
Got connections so we
know we'll get in
chorus-same
It's the center for the
neuvou fashions
The thrift stores are filled
with rich lady cast offs
A couple bucks and you
got a new outfit
Looking like a bunch of
confident misfits
chorus-same
bridge-With you this city feels good
Without you I get lost in the crowd
We built a life here together
Now you're pursuing other endeavors
No car, no insurance,
no money
But together we're
sweet as honey
I thought we were living
our dream
but life isn't always what it seems
