- Uptown Lyrics

Uptown uptown uptown
Uptown uptown uptown
saved up for weeks just to buy yourselfthat dress
you're such a star you look like nobody else
work in an office/cage/a factory line
working for peanuts
one thing on your mind
Uptown uptown uptown
Uptown uptown uptown
you go out dancing taking drugs with your friends
you feel so good you never want it to end
and when the comedown hits & monday arrives
back in the office/cage/a factory line
dream of
Uptown uptown uptown
saturday night
Uptown uptown uptown
lost in the night
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
to get by in this town
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
to survive in this town
Uptown uptown uptown
sometimes you wonder what you're doing with your life
just work/consume/
just work/consume'till you die
sometimes it feels the only time
you're alive
is when you go out on a saturday night
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
to get by in this town
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
to survive in this town
Uptown uptown uptown
Uptown uptown uptown
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
to get by in this town
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
and it's so hard
to survive in this town
Uptown uptown uptown
Uptown uptown uptown
Uptown uptown uptown
Uptown uptown uptown
