The Regency Lyrics

[Intro]
I battled with the regency
I fought them to a draw
Now I'm gonna tell you
Everything I saw

[Verse 1]
I saw a nose job
I saw a con job
I saw heartthrob
With a small knob

It was a whisperer
Who put the grab on her
I saw white flag
I felt my throat gag

[Pre-Chorus]
Misty is an optimist
She comes from way down low
She's sleeping with a rock star
She doesn't love him though

[Chrorus]
Fuck the regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up ('Cy up)
Fuck the regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up ('Cy up)

See Iggy Pop Live

Get tickets as low as $199

[Interlude]
Yeah, it's boring
Yeah, I'm snoring
Cheesy, cheesy
Queasy, plеasey

[Pre-Chorus]
Once I was a nobody
I didn't stay too long
Like a dog or cat or bird
I sang a lusty song

[Chorus]
Fuck thе regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up ('Cy up)
Fuck the regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up ('Cy up)

[Verse 2]
Lead the victims in, to the stadium
Fill the cold parking lot
Girl who once believed winks and spreads her knees
Fuck the regency up

[Bridge]
Satan is hiring
Ah, but Satan is tiring
No laughs, no fucking chance
No laughs at all

[Chorus]
Fuck the regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up ('Cy up)
Fuck the regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up ('Cy up)

[Post-Chorus]
Feeling murderous? Tore a journalist
Laugh it up, laugh it up

[Refrain]
Fuck the regency, fuck the regency
Fuck the regency up
Fuck the regency
Fuck the regency, fuck, fuck

[Outro]
Fuck
I battled with the regency
I fought them to a draw
While I'm alive, uncompromised
I'm stepping out the door, the door

What did Iggy Pop say about "The Regency"?

There’s a very interesting relationship between the parking business, the banks and the stadium business. The real money is in that parking lot. It’s a really big business. That’s sort of what this song is talking about. And Taylor Hawkins played on this and ‘Comments’. He really makes them come alive. I had met Taylor when I opened for the Foo Fighters, and then he played me in the CBGB movie. His abs were the movie poster, presumably as my abs.
