Adoration of the City

Lyrics

Adoration of the city
 Adoration of the town
 With the gardens at the centre
 Where the penguins stroll around
 Adoration
 Adoration of the city
 It's your city I adore
 As I lie there on my stomach
 As you sprawl across the floor
 Adoration, adoration
 Adoration of the city
 Adoration of the zones
 All divided into districts
 Marked with black and yellow cones
 I wanna get my head around your
 One-way systems
 Well I'm stuck on the ring road, marooned on the beltway
 I'm bumper to bumper and nose to tail
 Oh baby
 I see your gleaming spires but I'm out on all four tyres
 Oh baby
 Well it's Chocka at the Hogarth
 Where the grey flyover looms
 How I wish I was beside you
 Where your central flower blooms
 Adoration
 I love your city
 I love your cat
 I love your button
 And I love your flat
 I kiss your chimneys
 I walk your heels
 And when you're stomping down in them you
 Don't know how it feels
 I wanna get my head around your
 I wanna get my head around your
 I wanna get my head around your
 One way systems
 Adoration
