Lyrics:

No pretty trees here
No sweet tea breeze
You better leather wrap your baby feet
Lift your chin up
Connect your eyes
To the half dead with hearts still alive

Yes they have names too, don't forget
It could happen to you, you will too
Starving souls need fed out of respect recognize our living dead, won't forget

Downtown is a ghetto where the curbs have space
There's humans abandoned compliant hard lines through their hopeless faces

No dirt to comb
Green grass to mow
Broken glass
Old rubbers and bones
Where the river dumps our trash and smut
Under our fingernails, under our rug

Fiending for a handout, handshaking uptime, shake a microcosm into the center of your mind….

Love them or hate them now, the Growlers are always in a class of their own.

[beelaboo]

why is everyone hating in this song I actually like it

[heazuemoody]

first the growlers release a new video then julian casablancas and the voidz announce a film for father electricity i AM HERE FOR THIS

[ferndawg]

So glad it was recorded in Los Angeles!

[JoOrtiz]

Post pandemic evictions, foreclosures, and layoffs. Overpriced housing market and rent. Inflation at an all time high. It’s gonna get real. This tune is deep.

[mikas]

They just post this on my birthday and I feel this is the best gift I will have <3£3

[kimvanfelton]

I still don't fully understand why some old school Growlers fans are so vitriolic about City Club. It's a little different and might not be your cup of tea and that's totally fine but some of ya'll are acting like jilted lovers or some shit. Roll with change or don't - no one is stopping you from jamming to their older stuff.

Great video for a song I overlooked before but now I'll pay it more deserved attention. And love the Polamalu jersey 😀 #steelersnation

Who else is stoked for hung at heart 2

[laurensluz]

No pretty trees here
No sweet tea breeze
You'd better leather wrap your baby feet
Lift your chin up
Connect your eyes
To the half-dead with hearts still alive

[Chorus]
Yes they have names too
(Don't forget)
It could happen to you
(You will too)
Starving souls need fed
(Out of respect)
Recognize our living dead
(Won't forget)

Downtown is a ghetto
Where the curbs have space
There's humans, abandoned
Compliant hard lines
Through their hopeless faces

[Verse 2]
No dirt to comb
Green grass to mow
Broken glass
Old rubbers and bones

Where the river dumps
Our trash and smut
Under our fingernails
Under our rug

[Chorus]
Yes they have names too
(Don't forget)
It could happen to you
(You will too)
Starving souls need fed
(Out of respect)
Recognize our living dead
(Won't forget)

Downtown is a ghetto
Where the curbs have space
There's humans, abandoned
Compliant hard lines
Through their hopeless faces

[Bridge]
Fiending for a handout
Handshaking uptime
Shake a microcosm
Into the center of your mind…

[Chorus]
Yes they have names too
(Don't forget)
It could happen to you
(You will too)
Starving souls need fed
(Out of respect)
Recognize our living dead
(Won't forget)

Downtown is a ghetto
Where the curbs have space
There's humans, abandoned
Compliant hard lines
Through their worn out faces

Downtown is a ghetto
Where the curbs have space
There's humans, abandoned
Compliant hard lines
Through their hopeless faces
