lyrics

I was complaining at the station
I see the people walking by but I'm not the one to leave
they try to chase me as I smuggled cigarettes
but I was hiding by the port between the sailors of Bangladesh
It was the nineties in a city still too old
and getting by becomes an art and becomes a fulltime job

Chorus
I'm feeling happy when I'm singing and all the worries fade between
the words of another written song


I got a job by the sea I'm selling sodas and cold beer doing it all illegally
I told my best friend don't give up on your pursuits don't let the fear of
growing old find you quicker than a stroke
they shut the door now and they judge you by the hat
even your family say hey find a job and walk your dog


Chorus
I'm feeling happy when I'm singing and all the worries fade between
the words of another written song


and they stole my car at noon
the butcher called his brother in law and they took me to the spot
one million lire gently placed inside my socks
the man in charge began to laugh and told a boy to get my car
I shook the thief's hand thanking him for the discount
I got a stereo for few bucks and few tips on where to park


Chorus
I'm feeling happy when I singing and all the worries fade between
the words of another written song
