The Thrills

The Thrills are an Irish rock band, formed in 2001 in Dublin, Ireland. The band was founded by lead vocalist Conor Deasy and guitarist Daniel Ryan, guitarist and bass player Padraic McMahon, pianist Kevin Horan and drummer Ben Carrigan. Their big break came with their debut album, So Much for the City, which became an Irish number one and charted at number 3 in the UK. The band's sound has been described as "inspired by classic American pop of the late '60s and early '70s" by MTV.com and "an ocean-soaked, harmony-heavy homage to California's dreamy dreams, shaking ground, and unrelenting sunshine" by Pitchfork Media. more »

How did you do it?
'Well,' she said, 'smoke & mirrors...
Anything for love
Anything for love' 
Low expectations
Are breathing down my back
No grudge unworthy of holding
I know that won't be hard, I know that won't be hard
You can't take the city, oh no
Out of a city girl 

Well I don't know how we ended up here
Wide eyed and new money
With faded beauty queens
Well I don't know how we ended up here
Right before I met you
I had fire in my eyes 

Down my the river
I found a little town
Down by the river
Where all the lovers go, all the lovers go 

Making teenage boys feel
Like a Christmas tree
Ogling eyes, ogling eyes
I know you dread the day, when it's any other way
You can't take the city, oh no
Out of a city girl 

Well I don't know how we ended up here
Wide eyed and new money
With faded beauty queens
Well I don't know how we ended up here
Right before I met you
I had fire in my eyes 

You can't take the city, oh no
Out of a city girl 

Well I don't know how we ended up here
Wide eyed and new money
With faded beauty queens
Well I don't know how we ended up here
Right before I met you
I had fire in my eyes
In my eyes
