lyrics

The City

The city is the place to be
If ya wanna end up knee-deep in misery
Just look around and baby you can tell
That the whole world is goin’ to Hell
And everyone’s under a spell
Whatcha gunna do about it now?

The hate, the greed, upon which we feed
Baby, whatcha gunna do about it now?

There’s a homeless kid on the corner of the street
Wearin’ nuthin’ but rags and the scars of defeat
With a needle in his vein, his skin is rotting away
And it’s alright and it’s okay
As long as we look away
‘Cause we don’t wanna have to face the facts

A young girl in need of a fix
So she stands on the corner turnin’ tricks
She’s been used and abused every step of the way
And the pimps and the perverts don’t give a shit
Heading out for an eternal pit
If they don’t repent from their wicked ways
