We argued on the channel train to Paris
The vanrougue helped us make it sweet again
But by the time that we got down to Lyon
Everything I said was wrong
And you cursed me in the rain
We split up for a while in Barcelona
We met up six days later in Madrid
I was hoping that the break would
make it go a little better for us
And for a little while it almost did
Now I'm in a bar in Copenhagen
And I'm tryin' hard to forget your name
And I'm staring at the label of a bottle of cervasa
And every fucking city looks the same
You said to call me when I got to London
A French girl said you'd left a note
I said to her 'I like your accent'
And she thought I sounded funny
So we ended up drinking in Soho
Foolishly I followed you to Dublin
Like a ghost I walked the streets of Temple Bar
And all the bright young things
were throwing up their Guinness in the gutters
And once I thought I saw you from afar
Now I'm in a nightclub in Helsinki
And they're playing La Vida Loca once again
And I can't believe I'm dancing to this crap
but I'm a chance here
And every fucking city sounds the same
[Modulate up one step to B]
At a cafe; in the port of Amsterdam
An email from you said you'd gone to Rome
For a minute I thought maybe
but my funds were running low
And anyway it sounded like you weren't alone
So I headed north 'til I got to Hamburg
A chilly city suits a troubled soul
And on the Reaperbahn
I paid a woman far too much
To kick me out before I'd even reached my goal
Now I'm in a restaurant in Stockholm
And the waiter here wants me to know his name
And I can order sandwiches
in seven different languages
But every fucking city looks the same
Arevaderci, au revoiur, auf weidersein, hasta la vista.....baby
Every fucking city's just the same.
