Lyrics

City by the sea
It's been a long week
Can't cope with the concrete
He just wants a treat
Something nice to eat

Come on now man just scan the barcode
I don't wanna be late, I'm a slowpoke
I don't really care now if I go broke
Just try the other card, man, I'm a poor bloke

Wish you were here
Weather so clear
Look at that view
Come again soon
Welcome to the gem of the English coast
Look at that view
Come again soon

City by the sea
Broke on the high street
Prices are off-peak
She calls him a creep
It's looking kind of bleak

Living it big up on the seaside
It's a cool trip, just park it and ride
Tourism town, it's taken a dive
Those summertime trips keeping it alive

Wish you were here
Weather so clear
Look at that view
Come again soon
Welcome to the gem of the English coast
Look at that view
Come again soon

Look at that view
Come again soon

Sitting on the seafront drinking coca cola
Supermarket sandwich, flip phone Motorola
Welcome to the gem of the English Coast
Look at that view
Come again soon

Wish you were here
Weather so clear
Look at that view
Come again soon
Welcome to the gem of the English coast
Look at that view
Come again soon

Come again soon
