Alex the Astronaut - Rockstar City Lyrics

Wired smiles from the streets, I think they're getting high
I don't mind the sunny puddles, let's hope my socks and shoes will dry
Something's put me in a daze, did they tell you I got lost today?
And I know the streets are numbered, "welcome to New York they'll say"

I think they could tell I was nervous
'Cause I kept looking down, I kept watching the ground
But I made my way back through the chorus
And the half-baked crowd started cheering quite loud
And I didn't know if it was for me
So I lifted my eyes from my feet
Oh, was it something to see, I smiled and remembered to breathe

Mum, I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud, I think you'd be proud
Oh, I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud

Lunch in Soho, Noho I don't know, they seem the same to me
Mumma Foamer took me from noho, the afternoon was looking free
Wheel the horses from their feet, the taxi's good enough for me
Money trees can't sell to me, bobs, the garden's full for free

I think they could tell I was nervous
'Cause I kept looking down, I kept watching the ground
But I made my way back through the chorus
And the half-baked crowd started cheering quite loud
And I didn't know if it was for me
So I lifted my eyes from my feet
Oh, was it something to see, I smiled and remembered to breathe

Mum, I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud, I think you'd be proud
Oh, I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud

Crying at the garden edge won't let you see the flowers that grow in spring
Past the front desk bearing glass he asks, he's working there too late
So I stayed long enough to care, still ideas that I don't get
Coloured hair and fancy dress seem to be the theme here I would guess
It's time to go, I've got a show, breathe slow as jelly fills my legs

I think they could tell I was nervous
'Cause I kept looking down, I kept watching the ground
But I made my way back through the chorus
And the half-baked crowd started cheering quite loud
And I didn't know if it was for me
So I lifted my eyes from my feet
Oh, was it something to see, I smiled and remembered to breathe

Mum, I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud, I think you'd be proud
Oh, I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud
Yeah, I sang in Rockstar City
Oh, can't have been all that pretty
But I sang in Rockstar City I think you'd be proud, I think you'd be proud
