Lyrics All The Ugly Things - Bambara

All The Ugly Things

Well, I came here from a place
With lots of trees and beauty for beauty’s sake
Uh huh, yeah
Metal screeches through the night
And I’m finding that I like the way it sings
Uh huh, yeah well
I crush rats with my heel
And smile when they squeal
Slow like bending steel
Uh huh
Hear you whistle so I run
Find you bathing in the sun
Uh huh, yeah I squint in it with you
Till you, say something
Would you say something
Say
Huh!
Back home there was a flood
And I’m told my house was buried in mud
Uh huh, yeah now
I’m drunk and dizzy here
Where all the ugly things are lit up so pretty
Uh, uh yeah
But sometimes
Sometimes I’d like to see a girl
With flowers braided in her hair
I pass out on the train
Till you say something
Would you say something
Say something
Say, huh!
Say something
Say, huh!
Say
