In the City - Madness

He is just a boy in the city

Dressed the same he’s uniformly pretty

He knows it’s the time

He can read the signs

He can really change in the city

The best dressed boy in town he thinks it’s funny

Half a dozen jobs makes his money

He’s just a boy in the city

Friday night propels Walter Mitty

It’s about time

He can read the signs

A night on the town, in the city

Monday is a work day

Tuesday’s much the same

Wednesday comes and goes away

Thursday’s back again

Friday night to Sunday in the morning

Monday brings the weekend’s final yawning

Now it’s about time

He has crossed the line

He is miles away in the city

(City!)

(City!)

(City!)

(City!)

Now it’s about time

He can read the signs

He can really change

It is on his mind

He has crossed the line

He has gone once more from the city
