*from Episode 2 (2007)*


Verse 1:

(Bret):

C (x32010@1)Inner city life,
Inner city pressure,
The concrete world,
Is starting to get ya,
    FThe (133211@1)city is alive,
The city is expanding,
Living in the city,
Can be demanding.

       CYou've (x32010@1)pawned,
Everything,
Everything you own,
Your toothbrush, jar,
And a camera phone.
    FYou (133211@1)don't know,
Where you're going,
You cross the street,
You don't kno,
Why you did,
You walk back,
Across the street.

C (x32010@1)Standing in,
The sitting room,
Totally skint,
And your favorite,
Jersey is,
Covered in lint.
    FYou (133211@1)want to sit down,
But you sold your chair,
So you just, stand there.

C (x32010@1)       F (133211@1)You just stand there,
(You just stand there).

Chorus 1:

Gm (355333@1)Inner,
      FInner (133211@1)city,

(Inner city pressure).

Verse 2:

(Jemaine):

         CCounting (x32010@1)coins on,
The counter of the 7-11,
From a quarter past six,
'Til a quarter to seven.
    FThe (133211@1)manager Bevan,
Starts to abuse me;
Hey man, I just,
Want some Muesli.

C (x32010@1)Neon signs,
Hidden messages,
Questions, answers,
Fetishes.
    FYou (133211@1)know you're,
Not in high finance,
Considering getting,
Second hand underpants.

C (x32010@1)Check your mind,
How'd it get so bad?
What happened to those,
Other underpants you had?
F (133211@1)Look in your pockets,
Haven't found a cent yet,
Landlords on your balls;
"Have you paid your rent yet?"

Verse 3:

(Jemaine):

       CSo (x32010@1)you think maybe,
You'll be a prostitute,
Just to pay for your lessons;
You're learning the flute.
    FThe (133211@1)ladies won't pay,
You very much for this,
Looks like you'll never,
Be a concert flautist.

    CYou (x32010@1)don't measure up,
To the expectation,
When you're unemployed,
There's no vacation.
F (133211@1)No one cares,
No one sympathizes,
You just stay home,
And play synthesizers.
