Sometimes I like to go uptown

Where flashy people flash around

It's extortion air and I don't care
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
You can taste the pretence in the air

And I wonder what you wear tonight
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
The shiny black dress with the slit up the thigh

Is this the fantasy that I should think

Someone like you could love a creep like me
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
Your body is a weapon, love
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
And it makes me wanna cry
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
My body is a temple of doom
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
Due not to be by your side

I like my job when I do it well
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
It's freelance work and it pays like hell
![](/images/songs/translate_icon.png)
But I can get us a place with one bedroom

Who needs a friend when I got you
