Waking Up In The City Lyrics - The Ditty Bops

Waking up in the city 

What are we gonna do 

Take a picture to the park 

Sing songs about the moon 

I will bring the frisbee 

I will bring the dog 

We'll frolic in the pesticided grass beneath the smog 

Don't gotta worry 'bout bee stings 

Don't gotta worry 'bout ants 

Now's the time to take off our shoes 

And dance that cartoon dance 

In the afternoon time 

We will stroll downtown 

Past messengers on bicycles 

And men dressed up in gowns 

If we should get tired, let's just take the bus 

I hope that it's not crowded so we can sit up front 

I can't even see them scrape the sky 

Blurring the fashions whizzing by 

Sun gets down in the evening 

Lights start flashing on 

The city swells with energy 

The nightlife has begun 

Kustle and bustle 

So many sites to see 

Endless excitement 

Keeps me up 'till three 

Don't wanna go to the movies 

Who wants to sit inside 

I didn't get on the guest list 

Don't want to wait in line 

Let's go eat pierogis at my favorite cafe 

The waitress are grumpy and 

Their English ain't so great 

We'll talk ourselves in circles 

Til the pancakes are all gone 

Today's become tomorrow 

I can see the pink of dawn 

Oh, I'm getting tired, I'm oh so tired 

I think it's time to retire 

Time for bed 

To rest my sleepy head
