[Verse 1]
Living in the city is dirty and it's gritty
It's smoggy and it's sooty and it stinks
Well, I don't really mind it, I take it as I find it
But I don't care what anybody thinks
[Pre-Chorus]
And there's one thing I can't take
It's the noise the people make
[Chorus]
What a din, what a racket
I don't think I can hack it
I didn't come here looking for a fight
Pass a law and I'll back it
Pass a bag and let me pack it
I'll do anything if it'll bring me sleep at night
[Verse 2]
All day long, they're banging and clattering and clanging
And begging for the boss to let them out
You'd think they'd want some quiet, instead, they start a riot
And fuss and fight and scrap and scream and shout
[Pre-Chorus]
When you'd like a quiet drink
And you can't hear yourself think
Living in the city is dirty and it's gritty
It's smoggy and it's sooty and it stinks
Well, I don't really mind it, I take it as I find it
But I don't care what anybody thinks
[Pre-Chorus]
And there's one thing I can't take
It's the noise the people make
[Chorus]
What a din, what a racket
I don't think I can hack it
I didn't come here looking for a fight
Pass a law and I'll back it
Pass a bag and let me pack it
I'll do anything if it'll bring me sleep at night
[Verse 2]
All day long, they're banging and clattering and clanging
And begging for the boss to let them out
You'd think they'd want some quiet, instead, they start a riot
And fuss and fight and scrap and scream and shout
[Pre-Chorus]
When you'd like a quiet drink
And you can't hear yourself think
