lyrics

I was useless and lonely so I got myself out
I grew out my beard and I moved to the south
But an empty apartment does not a home make
Now I'm useless and lonely in a far away place

Sydney, Sydney
You son of a bitch
The cruellest of mistress' cruellest of tricks
And your obvious opulence gives me the shits
Sydney, Sydney
You son of a bitch

Now I'm uncertain about where I sit
I'm paddling upstream through this miserable bullshit
Things look up only to look down again
When you stop looking it usually rains

Sydney, Sydney
You son of a bitch
The cruellest of mistress' cruellest of tricks
And the temperature's temperamental as all shit
Sydney, Sydney
You son of a bitch

I spend my time spinning backwards
Borrowing springs from the mattress
Used to have promise and maybe potential but now that's gone
It's over and done with and all I have left is...

Sydney, Sydney
You son of a bitch
You upper class, backward arse, fuck of a city
You're winning in increasing increments
Sydney, Sydney
You son of a bitch
