Lovely city, when do you laugh? 

Stoney people, what do you have? 

  

Well, you ride around on a bright shiny cloud 

and you think that you've found true happiness 

there's no method in your mind 

and your tempers are kind 

is it too much to ask to give it a rest? 

  

Lovely city, when do you laugh? 

Stoney people , what do you have? 

  

I'm a part of you, you don't wanna be 

I'm an unexpected visitor who's dropped in for tea 

but I'm not so low you don't even know that I'm here 

You can't even see

Stoney people, what do you have?
