Lyrics

Champagne worth a fortune and emerald green lights
In a million dollar clothing at big city nights
This is the big dream, this is the perfect illusion
Illusion, illusion, illusion

But it can turn out as a world of plastic shallowness
Show me a shabby world where everything is a mess
It isn't necessarily worse when it's cheap
It's not that deep, it's not that deep, it's not that deep

Take me to a place no one aspires to
Lead me into a world where everything is true
No more fake, I want it unmistakably
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly

Let's condescend ourselves down to dissoluteness
In a dark and shabby world where everything's a mess
I want it real, I want it unmistakably
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly

You and me down in a sleazy basement dive
This is the place where my vivacious soul can thrive
It looks like hell here but for me it's heavenly
Heavenly, heavenly, heavenly

Ragged and grumpy elderlies and gothic girls
in inexpensive jackets with jewellery and pearls
This is the real and unfiltered world, it's not that deep
It's not that deep, it's not that deep, it's not that deep

Take me to a place no one aspires to
Lead me into a world where everything is true
No more fake, I want it unmistakably
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly

Let's condescend ourselves down to dissoluteness
In a dark and shabby world where everything's a mess
I want it real, I want it unmistakably
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly

Take me to a place no one aspires to
Lead me into a world where everything is true
No more fake, I want it unmistakably
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly

Let's condescend ourselves down to dissoluteness
In a dark and shabby world where everything's a mess
I want it real, I want it unmistakably
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly

Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly
Slovenly, slovenly, slovenly
