lyrics

City at Night

We got cops on the street
Flashing red, white and blue
When there’s a party in the Mission
We don’t go out on the Avenues

They’ve got burrito stands
And they stay open ‘til 3am
Filled with white kids from the suburbs
Pretending they don’t give a damn

And it’s wonderful, and it’s uptight
And sometimes it’s just alright

In the City at night, woah
In the City at night, woah
Everything seems perfect just for a little while

See the crackhead screaming
Down in the alley below
While the homie whistles at your girlfriends
Drinkin’ his 4Loko

And the city noise and city fights
And the shitty smells, broken traffic lights, well
I know we’re gonna have ourselves a real good time

Cause it’s wonderful, and it’s uptight
And sometimes it’s just so right

In the City at night, woah
In the City at night, woah
Everything seems perfect just for a little while

Well, it’s beautiful and it’s out of sight
We ain’t gonna stop until the morning light

In the City at night, woah
In the City at night, woah
Everything seems perfect just for a little while

In the City, in the City, in the City, in the City
I know we’re gonna have ourselves a real good time

about

Scary Little Friends San Francisco, California

The brainchild of Chris Jones with Charlie Knote on drums and Jon Payne on bass, which features lilting vocals (ala Jeff Buckley) and surfs-up psychedelic guitar, creating their version of the “San Francisco Sound” w/ underlying southern soul roots. Strong songwriting is really the bread and butter of this band; no gimmicks or tricks, just great songs about what you were thinking but couldn’t say. ... more
