[Intro]
There′s somebody that lives in the city
They're 100 feet tall and they are terribly pretty
And I can see them in the distance
Whenever I′m taking a walk
(In the distance whenever I'm taking a walk)

[Verse 1]
And if it's ever too windy or rainy
If I succeed as successfully changing
My house is warm and it′s tall
And it′s right down the block
(My house is warm and it's tall and it′s right down the block)

And when you finally just snap and stomp
The financial district in the name of the cogs
Then you should let me know
I am dying to watch

[Chorus]
There's somebody that lives in the city
Thеy′re 100 feet tall and they're tеrribly pretty
And I can see them in the distance
Whenever I′m taking a walk
(and I can see them in the distance when I'm taking a walk)
And if she ever leaves me and my dog
In one big step past the bridge and the park
I think we'll feel so glad that
I felt something at all
(We′ll feel so glad that I felt something at all)

And any argument or heated debate
Tomorrow or in a year from today
Just means nothing to me
I′ve heard everything that a person can say

[Verse 2]
And she mumbled something softly and sweetly
And it was jumbled and garbled and sweeping
Whenever she's speaking
I swear that it sounds like she′s singing
(speaking I swear that it sounds like she's singing)

And it′s disgusting and just so sad
And I'm embarrassed so please don′t laugh
I just feel like I've known you
For like a month and a half

And I watch her take one big breath
I watch as I sit on my steps
You always know when you see something that you'll never forget
[Chorus]
There′s somebody that lives in the city
They′re 100 feet tall and they're terribly pretty
I can see them in the distance
Whenever I′m taking a walk
(in the distance whenever I'm taking a walk)

And if she ever leaves me and my dog
In one big step past the bridge and the park
I think we′ll feel so glad that
That I felt something at all
(So glad that I felt something at all)

{Outro]
There's somebody that lives in the city
They′re 100 feet tall and they're terribly pretty
I can see them in the distance
Whenever I'm driving my car

Any argument or heated debate
Tomorrow or in a year from today
Just means nothing to me
I′ve heard everything that a person can say
