Lyrics: Danko Jones. Born A Lion. Caramel City.

Washington D.C. is pretty but it ain't my city
I need a town where I can get down
I follow traces of faces of people baby and when they get it on the world turns brown
In my town you can walk around at night
Go anywhere with anyone you like
Don't like to leave I'd rather hang around
I love it 'cause the world comes to my town

C...A...R-A...M-E-L

The younger you feel the more it feels right
Crossover genes in the middle of the night
I thought a little colour hurt no one, but I was wrong baby dead wrong
So I'm calling all White people, Black people, Asians, South Asians, Hispanics, Natives, everybody
I'm gonna scream it at the top of my lungs
Caramel City is where I come from

C...A...R-A...M-E-L

It don't get better when you run and hide
I like to see it when the worlds collide
I wanna do it baby do it like we do every night
I'm sick and tired of just being friends
I wanna melt in pots and make amends
The first kiss means the party's about to begin

Washington D.C. is pretty but it ain't my city
I need a town where I can get down
I follow traces of faces of people baby
I need love from everyone around
So I'm calling all White people, Black people, Asians, South Asians, Hispanics, Natives, everybody
I'm gonna scream it at the top of my lungs
Caramel City is where I come from

C...A...R-A...M-E-L
