*from Episode 2 (2007)*


Verse 1:

(Bret):

Cm
 Inner city life, Inner city pressure,
The concrete world is starting to get ya.
    F
The city is alive, the city is expanding,
Living in the city can be demanding.

       Cm
You've pawned everything, everything you own,
Your toothbrush jar and a camera phone.
    F
You don't know where you're going; you cross the street,
You don't know why you did; you walk back across the street.

Cm
 Standing in the sitting room, totally skint,
And your favorite jersey is covered in lint.
    F
You want to sit down but you sold your chair,
So you just, stand there.
Cm        F
 You just stand there, (you just stand there).

Chorus 1:

Gm            F                Cm
 Inner, Inner city, Inner city pressure. (Inner city pressure).

Verse 2:

(Jemaine):

         Cm
Counting coins on the counter of the 7-11,
    F
The manager Bevan starts to abuse me;
Hey man, I just want some Muesli.

Cm
 Neon signs hidden messages, questions, answers, fetishes.
    F
You know you're not in high finance,
Considering getting second hand underpants.

Cm
 Check your mind; how'd it get so bad?
What happened to those other underpants you had?
F
 Look in your pockets; haven't found a cent yet,
Landlords on your balls; "Have you paid your rent yet?"

Chorus 2:

Gm            F                Cm
 Inner, Inner city, Inner city pressure. (Inner city pressure).

Am  Ab, D

Verse 3:

(Jemaine):

       Cm
So you think maybe you'll be a prostitute,
Just to pay for your lessons; you're learning the flute.
    F
The ladies won't pay you very much for this,
Looks like you'll never be a concert flautist.

    Cm
You don't measure up to the expectation,
When you’re unemployed there’s no vacation.
F
 No one cares, no one sympathizes,
You just stay home and play synthesizers.
