growing up in sydney - joe darcy & the new disease lyrics

[verse 1]
the angels all sang
from balconies in foveaux street
and the kids with tin whistles
and pyrotechnic dreams
never went down those alleys alone
in the evening
when i was growing up in sydney

[verse 2]
at night in my attic room
i hid my head behind books
’cause that hole in the wall was
was one place not to look
everyone knows
there are bodies and lost souls
hidden in such places from time to time
when i was growing up in sydney

[verse 3]
and we raced paddle pop ships
down the guttеrs of glebe
and beggеd money from gamblers
on their way to harold park races
where those bookies taught math
better than any school ever could
and some of us could run faster than those pacers
when i was growing up in sydney
[verse 4]
and i never thought i’d get this old
while i was watching that slum world unfold
growing up in sydney
with brothers, cousins and mates
bluey, pompey, jimmy, and lukey luke
we shot down all our chances
roaming the streets in search of answers
never knowing life was just a fluke surviving
growing up in sydney

[repeat verse 3]
and we raced paddle pop ships
down the gutters of glebe
and begged money from gamblers
on their way to harold park races
where those bookies taught math
better than any school ever could
and some of us could run faster than those pacers
when i was growing up in sydney

[repeat verse 4]
and i never thought i’d get this old
while i was watching that slum world unfold
growing up in sydney
with brothers, cousins and mates
bluey, pompey, jimmy, and lukey luke
we shot down all our chances
roaming the streets in search of answers
never knowing life was just a fluke surviving
growing up in sydney
