City Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fresh laid concrete
Melodies blowing
Don't care where we're going
But the day is wasting
Just keep moving
And take it all in!

[Pre-Chorus]
The rumble of voices
Are the bass to our song
The horns are just on the beat
Honkin' along
Let's be the harmony
But no note is wrong

[Chorus]
And let's take the city
And make it our song
Our song
Our song
Let's take the city
And make it our song

[Verse 2]
Pencil tapping
Feet speed walking
Cars just driving
Daydream gazing
Just keep moving
And take it all in

[Pre-Chorus]
The rumble of voices
Are the bass to our song
The horns are just on the beat
Honkin' along
Let's be the harmony
But no note is wrong

[Chorus]
And let's take the city
And make it our song
Our song
Our song
Let's take the city
And make it our song

[Bridge]
Everything going on around you
Just close your eyes
And disconnect for a moment or two
And hear

[Pre-Chorus]
The rumble of voices
Are the bass to our song
The horns are just on the beat
Honkin' along
We'll be the harmony
But no note is wrong
[Chorus]
And let's take the city
And make it our song
Our song
Our song
Let's take the city
And make it our song
