Dirty Air

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I gave myself to the city, I wanna breathe dirty air I got myself real pretty, I fixed up my hair And when that dancehall's set to break I wanna leave with the best I know When that anger takes its shape I will be leaving the best in show [Pre-Chorus] Give me your time, I'll give you plenty of mine Or give me something to burn, I'm tired of waiting my turn I'll give you fire, fire, fire, fire Smoking, broken windows, limbos Anything you wanna try [Chorus] The sky is fallin', so pull up a chair Everyone's watchin', but nobody cares The queen of fashion, ahead of her time Whatever happens, the pleasure is mine [Verse 2] I'm picking up the pieces of that stained glass pane And as my speed increases, I strip off my shame I slip the hook right off the bait I'm a machine running self-control Got a tongue that doesn't quite translate Lickin' somebody else's bowl [Pre-Chorus] Give me the vine and I'll give you the wine Bring anything that will burn and you'll get fire in return We'll start a fire, fire, fire, fire Blazing, raising hell now, well, now Anything to catch your eye Anything to catch your eye [Chorus] The sky is fallin', so pull up a chair Everyone's watchin', but nobody cares The queen of fashion, ahead of her time Whatever happens, the pleasure is mine The sky is fallin', so pull up a chair Everyone's watchin', but nobody cares The queen of fashion, ahead of her time Whatever happens, the pleasure is mine [Bridge] I said there's bread in Bethlehem I said there's bread in Bethlehem There's funds to pay your bills in Bethlehem More to drink that you know, in Bethle— Everything you need is in Bethlehem 'Cause that's where Jesus is That you know, in Bethle— [Chorus] The sky is fallin', so pull up a chair Everyone's watchin', but nobody cares The queen of fashion, ahead of her time Whatever happens, the pleasure is mine The sky is fallin', so pull up a chair Everyone's watchin', but nobody cares The queen of fashion, ahead of her time Whatever happens, the pleasure is all mine [Outro] (To pay your bills in Bethlehem) (More to drink that you know, in Bethle—) (Everything you need is in Bethle—)
