No Mean City (Parts 1 & 2)
|
|
Stopped in fright at a traffic light
|
Red eyes staring me out
|
Strange feelings comin' down tonight
|
Can't quite figure it out
|
Fit your alibi before your crime
|
No need in serving no time
|
Case you scam, or you'll get rammed
|
Stretched out on that line
|
|
Hangin' out at a shooting site
|
Cold turkey calling a tune
|
All the answers coming late tonight
|
Try to look like you're immune
|
In your eyes you can feel the heat
|
But the feelings outa touch
|
You're working on just a holding on
|
You're hurtin' oh so much
|
|
Feel the city heartbeat, feel the pulse in the streets
|
Can you feel the city heartbeat, can you feel the pulse in the streets
|
Can you feel your own heartbeat
|
Can you feel your blood begin to heat?
|
|
Call off your dogs 'cause I am no fox
|
Turn off your white light
|
My alibi is rock tight
|
Your night stick, cheap trick is pullin' me in
|
Your monkey suit, stage fright, black and white blue suit, law suit
|
Is wearin', mighty thin
|
|
Feel the city heartbeat, feel the pulse in the streets
|
Can you feel the city heartbeat, can you feel the pulse in the streets
|
Can you feel your own heartbeat
|
Can you feel your blood begin to heat?
|
|
Borstal boy laughing at justice now he's a star
|
And the perfume he wore lingers on the king's road
|
Like a whore
|
Legs wrapped around a plastic stool
|
He's making more in one day
|
Than you've had.......hot, hot dinners
|
|
Call out your legions, the savior is loose
|
Telling true stories you know that ain't no use
|
Your empire is burning you can feel the smell
|
Your hot rod , space pod, tax relief, kill machine
|
Is looking mean
|
And should be working well
|
|
Feel the city heartbeat, feel the pulse in the streets
|
Can you feel your own heartbeat
|
Can you feel the pulse in the streets
|
Can you feel your own heartbeat
|
Can you feel your blood begin to heat?
