Lowest Of The Low Rosy And Grey Lyrics

Rosy And Grey Lyrics

I want to take a streetcar downtown 

Read Henry Miller and wander around 

And drink some Guinness from a tin 

'Cause my U.I. cheque has just come in 

Ah, where you been... because 



Everything is coming up rosy and grey 

Ah, the wind is cold but the smell of snow warms me today 

And your smile is fine and it's just like mine and it won't go away, 'cause 

Everything is rosy and grey 



You've been under my skin for more than eight years 

It's been eight years of laughter and eight years of tears 

And I don't know what the future can hold, or will do, for me and you 

But I'm a much better man for having known you 

Yeah, you know that's true, because... 



Well, I've been told that there's a sucker born every day 

Well, I wonder who, yeah, I wonder who 

Maybe the one who doesn't realize there's a thousand shades of grey 

'Cause I know that's true, yes I do, I know that's true 

How about you? 



Well, they're picking up trash and they're putting down roads 

And they're brokering stocks, the class-struggle explodes 

And I'll play this guitar just the best that I can 

Well, maybe I'm not and maybe I am 

Who gives a damn? 

Well, I've kissed you in France and I've kissed you in Spain 

And I've kissed you in places I'd better not name 

And I've seen the sun go down on Sacre Coeur 

But I like it much better going down on you 

Ah, you know that's true
