We've been living in the city such a long time   Maybe we should live by the water   I'll shape up and you'll fill out and we could buy a house   Maybe even have us a daughter      Cause the city brings the man out in the man   And it makes it hard for me to understand    Your feelings      I'm so tired of catching trains and coming home late   I might even try and cook dinner   I'll make contacts in the trees the boss says I could   He thinks I should live by the water      Shut the door and dim the lights and fix yourself a drink   I got something we should consider   We've been living in the city such a long time   Maybe we should live by the water
