lyrics

me and my tokyo we go out walking
walking the block sundown ‘til sun up
dog and his mama collecting cans
out by the freeway a girl and her best friend
we don’t make a killing
but it’s still a living to me

sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la

me and my tokyo we go out walking
walking the block sundown ‘til sun up
it’s only a burden when we think too much
about his cup verses our cup
their luck verses our luck
then again what isn’t
if you look hard enough, i say
we don’t make a killing
but it’s still a living to me

sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la

and in the morn when we go down to bed
we snore so loud we could scare off the dead
la-ya-ya-ya

sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la

me and my tokyo walking the block
collecting cans sundown ‘til sun up
greetings manhattan, you smell like the weekend
we’ll get our paws dirty then cash all our chips in

and out on the boardwalk the kids call you skinny
but you just ignore them
you’re the king of the city
and we don’t need anyone to think we’re pretty
guess i don’t need much if i got you, baby
you and the big new york city skyline
that’s all
my kinda something

‘cause we don’t make a killing
but hey, it’s still a living to me
don’t make a killing
but it’s still a living to me

sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la

to me
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la-la
