Peter Bruntnell - City Star lyrics

City star, you swallowed up the sun What's the heat that lights your houses up And leaves the chimney windows shunned You bought yourself a sign That says you stand for everyone And once, the light has been delivered I saw you throw it up And sell the night to the highest bidder City star, don't do me any good Don't throw me any cover You don't treat me like you should Just meter off my breath And turn the stones from gold to soot And once, the light has been delivered I saw you throw it up And sell the night to the highest bidder City star, you're stepping up the fun Now the Jones want Japanese Everything is overdone The money's in your sleeves Not fooling anyone And once, the light has been delivered I saw you throw it up And sell the night to the highest bidder And once, the orange juice sun has sivered I saw you roll it up And sell the night to the highest bidder
