Part 1, play till start of verse
(silence)
Well the sun grew dim and the night grew tall
Everyone's dancing in the dirty dancehall
The chins they did wobble, the eyes did stare
There was a sense of threat in the air
part 2
Everyone's dancing, feeling fine
part 2
But looking like Zombies, as though they're dying
part 2
I stood alone in the darkened room
part 2
My mouth is dry and my heart goes boom
Parts 2 and 3 x4
Part 2
Oh the dogs and the vermin were mooching in the streets
Part 2
Sniffing out the candy and the left over meat
Part 2
Down in the alley a tramp falls asleep
Part 2
Murdering the hooker and chops off their feet
Part 2 alone.
Part 2
Everyone's dancing, feeling fine
Part 2
But looking like Zombies, as though they're dying
Part 2
I stood alone in the darkened room
Part 2
My mouth is dry and my heart goes boom
Part 4
This is just a night in the City of Culture
Part 4
But everyone's whacked and looks like vultures [4x]
(silence)...Ooh!
Part 2 alone.
Part 2
All the lights came on and the music stopped
Part 2
Men in uniform outside on watch
Part 2
The tramp waits by the bush to pounce
Part 2
Woken up again by a young girl's shout
Part 2
Closing up the club, a fight breaks out
Part 2
All the Black Mariahs were left in no doubt
Part 2
One got killed another one ran
Part 2
They ended up arresting an innocent man
Part 4
This is just a night in the City of Culture
Part 4
But everyone's whacked and looks like vultures [4x]
part 2 x8
repeat part 1 without guitar 1 until end of song.

| Awesome ending. The song pretty much sums up most nights out in Britain's towns. | |

| This song makes me think of dark streets full of junkies and prostitutes o_O lmao. But its very good, very catchy, something very creepy about it though. And the parts after the chorus where Dave goes "ooh!" just make me laugh... | |

| Why no-one's commented on this I'll never know!! What a tune!! I love the upbeat melodic stuff like Remember Me, but their moody stuff (Havana Gang Brawl, Long Time Coming and this) are just superb. This one being my favourite. The chorus is soooo ace...and David McCabe's voice suits this so well. Can't wait for the second alb. "Down in the alley a tramp falls asleep Murdering the hooker and chops off their feet" Zutons = imaginative feckers! | |

| Being a student in the bands hometown gives extra insight! This song seems certainly to describe the club known as "The Razz" in Concert Square in Liverpool - If you've ever been you'll know what I mean! People either love it or hate it... apparently The Zutons are not it's biggest fan! Liverpool is a vibrant place... Go and experience it! | |
