Mexico City I love you, but you're full of potholes

Mexico City I love you, but my pressure is down
Like a rats nest, a gaping hole in my contis
Mexico City I love you, but I’m now late to class

Mexico you’re un safer, and you’re wasting my time
old records all show, you’re the filthiest now
But they shuttered your mercados, when you opened the doors
To the cops that were bored once they’d ru n out of bribes

Mexico you’re inperfect oh please do change your roads
Your mildly physcotic mayor’s now convinced he’s the king
So the narcos collect
I mean all dissrespect
In the neighborhood parks I’d once dreamt I would walk

Mexico I love you, but my pressure is down
A sudden burst and we’re now out of air
Like a death of a cyclist,
That you can hear through Periscope
Mexico I love you, but I’m fucking late to class

Mexico I love you, but I’ve got a tardy now
Mexico I love you, but I’ve got a tardy now
Like a death of the contis
Jesus, which nut’s the lock !

But you’re still the one hole where I’d happily have to stop
And oh, random man, I do not want your help,
for kids who think you’re a mugger
for those of us who know you’re gonna mug me
Maybe I’m low, maybe I’m pulling right
Maybe I’m low, maybe I’m pulling right
Maybe you’re up and just maybe I’m full of air

and OHHH maybe Axa told you true
and there’ll always be a lorry for you
And you’ll never be alone
But maybe they’re wrong, maybe
I’m on hold and maybe they’re wrong
Maybe they’re wrong and maybe I’m on hold
Maybe they’re wrong, and so goes this spare!

A damn good song by a damn good band. I caught them last December in Philadelphia and it was a blast. Sadly, this is the one song that I really wanted them to play but they didn't.

I think this is one of their more important songs...But yeah, it’s pretty good. I see some parallels here, specially because of gentrification

There was a 2 year period in my life where I was trying to move back to Pennsylvania after taking a job about 450 miles away in North Carolina. I listened to LCD soundsystem a lot during those times, and this song resonated with me.

Ah yes, I knew you were a man of taste.

Do you know the version by LCD?

Well, deep down it’s a song about times changing, and the author not wanting that change, and feeling hopeless about it, it’s universal in that sense.

This is why I hate low pros.

Well this and the ride quality and expense.

Yeah, it knackered my rim too.

I swear I want to fit the smaller 2.0 rims and wider rims , not sure if the break calliper will take it though

17s with 45-50 series tire is as low as I’ll go, even that is too stiff sometimes, but it’s at least enough sidewall to eat potholes without issue.

Well, it might be a blessing in disguise, I will get off those fucking contis I hate, the rear tire also developed a buldge... so it’s short on time. Great, fucking pothole’s gonna run me a fortune.
