Okay living in the city

Whores outside a-posing

Traffic noise a lullaby

Skyscapers better than the blue skies

We can do what we want

We can say what we please

We can be who we want

Being poor's okay by me

Proud I don't have no TV



Living at the Canterbury

[My friends think I'm a fool]

Living at the Canterbury

I guess it's pretty cool



Living at the Canterbury

Fighting off the roaches

Like being in a dormitory

Till rental due approaches

[Don't know where we'll get the cash]

Spent it all on booze

I'm no fool with credit cards

It's better not to think

Sometimes little I like to think!
