Caramel City - Lyrics - Danko Jones

Washington, D.C. is pretty but it ain't my city I need a town where I can get down I follow traces of faces of people baby And when they get it on the world turns brown In my town you can walk around at night Go anywhere with anyone you like Don't like to leave I'd rather hang around I love it 'cause the world comes to my town C...A...RA...MEL The younger you feel the more it feels right Crossover genes in the middle of the night I thought a little color hurt no one But I was wrong baby, dead wrong So I'm calling all white people, black people Asians, South Asians, Hispanics, Natives everybody I'm gonna scream it at the top of my lungs Caramel city is where I come from C...A...RA...MEL It don't get better when you run and hide I like to see it when the worlds collide I wanna do it baby, do it like we do every night I'm sick and tired of just being friends I want to melt in pots and make amends The first kiss means the party is about to begin Washington, D.C. is pretty but it ain't my city I need a town where I can get down I follow traces of faces of people baby I need love from everyone around So I'm calling all white people, black people, Asians, South Asians, Hispanics, Natives everybody I'm gonna scream it at the top of my lungs Caramel city is where I come from C...A...RA...MEL C...A...RA...MEL C...A...RA...MEL
