Lyrics
0:00He's a dirty old man
0:02And a dirty old man
0:03He's a dirty old man
0:04And a friend of mine
0:11What
0:12He's a dirty old man
0:13And a dirty old man
0:14He's a dirty old man
0:15And a friend of mine
0:25I'm a dirty old man the mean streets are home
0:28My life is cold I'll chill you to the bone
0:31Heart of stone have a care
0:32I carry traces of death in my hair
0:34You know my breath stinks I leave sh*t everywhere
0:37So be aware I'm unfeeling
0:38Don't you dare try appealing to my better nature
0:41You better wait you're misinformed
0:44Ain't nothing warm about me
0:45Cold and gray concrete clay and steel
0:48And what else is real I mean the actual deal
0:51People seem to love living under my hair
0:54Some of them call me London
0:55I'm also known as New York
0:56Anywhere in the world you find me
0:58I talk the same bad talk
1:00Walk the same walk from side to side
1:02You're transparent to me there ain't a thing you can hide
1:05Derive glamor from the stamina it takes to survive
1:08You think I didn't know it's all over your face like a rat
1:11Now give me your cash and go before your heart break
1:13You're living under my wing and all you got I'm gonna take
1:16I'm a dirty old man
1:19He's a dirty old man
1:21And a dirty old man
1:22He's a dirty old man
1:23And a friend of mine
1:31He's a dirty old man
1:32And a dirty old man
1:33He's a dirty old man
1:34And a friend of mine
1:38Huh I'm a rough old man beyond heartache
1:41To improve my mood I could use an earthquake
1:44I sit awake for my people to release the pain
1:48So I can know peace again in my skin
1:51Sin deceit and mistrust soaked in huh
1:54I think I might just bust open drops of woe
1:57The streets flow with tears
1:59I fall down all around your ears
2:01If I could if I was made of wood start a fire no lie
2:05I can afford to smoke a sacred fire
2:07Couse I wouldn't bet on people changing just yet
2:10My eyes are wet and my heart is full of fear and regret
2:13So you're catching the rough edge of my tongue
2:15I started young
2:16I got teenagers carrying guns
2:18I hear you wanna hold me to blame
2:20But we're the same
2:21So for me win society and feel the shame
2:24I'm a rough old man
2:27He's a dirty old man
2:28And a dirty old man
2:29He's a dirty old man
2:31And a friend of mine
2:38He's a dirty old man
2:39And a dirty old man
2:41He's a dirty old man
2:42And a friend of mine
2:46Oh I'm a rough old man
2:48This is who I am
2:49He's a dirty old man
2:51And a dirty old man
2:52He's a dirty old man
2:53And a friend of mine
He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine What He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine I'm a dirty old man the mean streets are home My life is cold I'll chill you to the bone Heart of stone have a care I carry traces of death in my hair You know my breath stinks I leave sh*t everywhere So be aware I'm unfeeling Don't you dare try appealing to my better nature You better wait you're misinformed Ain't nothing warm about me Cold and gray concrete clay and steel And what else is real I mean the actual deal People seem to love living under my hair Some of them call me London I'm also known as New York Anywhere in the world you find me I talk the same bad talk Walk the same walk from side to side You're transparent to me there ain't a thing you can hide Derive glamor from the stamina it takes to survive You think I didn't know it's all over your face like a rat Now give me your cash and go before your heart break You're living under my wing and all you got I'm gonna take I'm a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine Huh I'm a rough old man beyond heartache To improve my mood I could use an earthquake I sit awake for my people to release the pain So I can know peace again in my skin Sin deceit and mistrust soaked in huh I think I might just bust open drops of woe The streets flow with tears I fall down all around your ears If I could if I was made of wood start a fire no lie I can afford to smoke a sacred fire Couse I wouldn't bet on people changing just yet My eyes are wet and my heart is full of fear and regret So you're catching the rough edge of my tongue I started young I got teenagers carrying guns I hear you wanna hold me to blame But we're the same So for me win society and feel the shame I'm a rough old man He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine Oh I'm a rough old man This is who I am He's a dirty old man And a dirty old man He's a dirty old man And a friend of mine
