YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS CITY LYRICS - THE WHITLAMSYou gotta love this city, love this city, you gotta love this cityYou gotta love this city, love this city, you gotta love this city Too sick for breakfast, the car wouldn't startThe train was really full, and his girlfriend had a boyfriendThe houses all the same, now here's the rainNot falling but collapsing at his feetDeep breath and he clocks on, raincoat on his armHe wishes the hours would disappear But the trip's in vain 'cause awaiting himA lay-off notice and his severance payHe shuffles back to the train againYou gotta love this city You gotta love this city, love this city, you gotta love this cityYou gotta love this city, love this city, you gotta love this city Back home he lies in bed for days and daysWatching American television, smokingAnd playing with himself ringing double-O double-5Into town on Thursday nightThe girls are pretty and the lights are brightAt least he loves his city Holding court on Taylor Square proper was the man he could becomeLear's Fool is a bum nowWith seven holy parcels by his side You gotta love this city, love this city, you gotta love this cityYou gotta love this city, love this city, you gotta love this city He walks along the foreshore, he's got a bottleAnd he's breathing with his city It was busy everywhere he wentThere was a crowd over the bayAnd a fireworks displayIt's all very strange for a Thursday night thought heThen it dawns on him as a cracker explodesAnd who the hell is he going to blame?It dawns on him - the horror - we got the Olympic Games You gotta love this city for its body and not its brain And he screams "My city is a whore, opened herself to the worldJumped up and down in pastel shirtsAnd lathered up thinking about designs for T-shirts" You gotta love this city for its body and not its brain It's more than he can take, and the stars' reflection breaks'Cause you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it enjoy the viewYou gotta love this cityHe's had enough and he sinks to the bottom Words and music by Tim FreedmanProduced by Rob Taylor and Tim FreedmanMixed and engineered by Rob TaylorVocal, Rhodes electric piano - Tim FreedmanBacking vocals - Marcia HinesHammond organ - Clayton DoleyGuitar - Mark PunchFlute, congas, tabla - BabsMarimba - Jess CiampaBass - Jackie OrszaczkyDrums, bells - Hamish Stuart

Fairfield competes with mt druitt for title of 'arsehole of the earth'. Neither are 'sydney' proper. Keep murdering each other and running backyard meth labs - destroy everyone in between - do us all a favor.

Lol love the fact u guys started battling over cities. U dont think that maybe this song had anything to do with Sydney except the fact Friedman lives there?? It could be any city ur in.

The last few things you said there just made me laugh, it's how I've always seen it. The song itself "You gotta love this city" implies that it's not the best, but you've gotta love it for what it is. Born in Fairfield, Sydney, and I wish I could move back down from the Gold Coast. (Not to Fairfield, that really is shit)

I was born and raised in Sydney, but there's no way I could live there now. The Sydney I grew up in is nothing like the Sydney today. How sad! I moved out when it became apparent that I couldn't visit my local shopping centre without my 4yo picking up used needles. Over and out!

Thank you, Descartes

Actually it's pretty human. If you were trying to say that they are sub-humans because of their actions, you really need to look at the recent history of the Sutherland Shire a while longer. While I personally wouldn't call them sub-human (which you would, by implicit extension of your demonstrated logic) those foul humans certainly need to reconsider what it means to be civilised, and maybe pick up a book instead of a beer. As indeed, do you, my hate-filled friend....

open your eyes buddy....go to the northern and some of the western suburbs of melbourne, then go for a walk at night...you will see the packs of dogs (exactly what they are) doing exactly what I said they would do. I assure you I am not making this up...I'm speaking from personal experience.

Thank you, Descartes

@matp1985 No, it would make them human, if what you proposed was even true. Which it isn't, you've simply swallowed stereotypes and slurs and your surrounding voices have let you wallow in your world full of deceit and untruth. Nobody is hunting, nobody is travelling in a pack (packs are for dogs, humans travel in groups). Families enjoy each other's company, but you apparently enjoy making shit up on the internet.

@TheTongueTerrorist what a crock of shit!! I'm not saying that these things never happened, but these things are no excuse for the fact that they do go around and littlerally hunt in packs... "someone we know was attacked...lets go and bash random innocent people so we don't suffer like those we know did"...hah! get your hand off it mate, they go hunting because they are scum (not the whole race, just those that "hunt").

@vilemerchant Do you know why some Lebanese people go places in large groups? Because they've seen their mothers, fathers, cousins, uncles and aunts bashed by racists in the past, and refuse to suffer the same indignity and physical insecurity.

All the Whitlams have been from Sydney, and many of their songs are about specific locations in Sydney (especially around Newtown, where they were based, and where Tim still lives. I used to see him around when I lived there).
