The dog it bites and the bee it stings
But Elvis never worried about these kinds of things
And your parents don't know that you're in a band
But that's ok because they'd never understand
Why you want to live downtown
Key Largo was playing at the Revue Cinema
But she never showed up, so you hit the bar
And you hit it hard
And it's one for the cradle, two for the crow
Three for the rain and four for the radio
Well, the dog it bites and the bee it stings
But Elvis never worried about these kinds of things
And your parents don't know that you're in a band
But that's ok because they'd never understand
Why you want to live downtown
Why you want to live downtown
Why you want to live downtown
You want to live downtown
