Hey all,

This song is called City Life, it is a fast upbeat punk rock song. talking about how a teenager who hated his home living with his parents that decided to move to the city and try life there and how it sucks and everything.

City Life

Living in the city,
15 dollars a day,
I promise you I hate it,
And I just gotta say,
I hate the way it looks,
And I hate the way they talk,
I hate the way they smile,
And I hate the way they walk,
They walk with arrogance,
And they all act so innocent,
Innocent, yeah…

Let me tell you all,
I'm sorry that I chose,
To screw up my life like this,
And then it all goes…

City life,
Is not for me,
I'm behind,
On my utility,
All my bills are late,
My rent check is due,
And I just found out,
I'm gonna lose a buck or two…

Break in almost every night,
I keep a bat in my room,
And a gun by my side,
I'm so scared of all the world,
Out there,
And I hate the way it looks,
And I hate the way they talk,
I hate the way they smile,
And I hate the way they talk,
They walk with arrogance,
And they all act so innocent,
Innocent, yeah…

Let me tell you all,
I'm sorry that I chose,
To screw up my life like this,
And then it all goes…

City life,
Is not for me,
I'm behind,
On my utility,
All my bills are late,
My rent check is due,
And I just found out,
I'm gonna lose a buck or two…

Just a teenage kid,
Out on my own,
Once I turned 18,
I ran away from home,
What a mistake,
I know that I made…

City life,
Is not for me,
I'm behind,
On my utility,
All my bills are late,
My rent check is due,
And I just found out,
I'm gonna lose a buck or two…

all i bought was a £3.50 microphone from any old computer shop....you can actually get a good sound with it,its the first step i suppose..ive got a few songs recorded by a mic about 2 feet away from my amp...if you tweak around with the settings you can get a good sound..just a suggestion if your short on cash...thats what i got anyhow...

gaz.....ps check out my post :wink: :wink:

ur song reminds me of a book i read several months ago i think called "Wierd on the Outside" which is about a girl who left her father to live with her mother cuz she wasnt doing well in school. her mother is an alcoholic and after a while she hated it too so she left leaving a note to her mom saying she is going back to her dad but she just left and lived on her own for over a year... to survive she became a "dancer" at a strip club... if you like stuff like that you should go read it... the last chapter made me cry... i love that book
