I hate this city where the sun don't shine
I see the shadows and they all have eyes
Can't get protection in this lawless town
If I had the money I'd get out right now

Tramp walks up to me I kick him right back down
I can't believe what this city's done to me

Everybody's burning up I see the signs
Everybody's burning up
Everybody's burning up live and let die
Nobody nobody seems to care, nobody

15 year old schoolgirls with 30 year old bodies
Walking the street to make their 'man' some money
It sure ain't no place where I wanna be
Take your money and run is what they say to me

Death stares in my face I kick him right back down
I can't believe what this city's done to me
