In The City Lyrics

East side, west side Larcency and homicide People trying to survive. Prostitution, retribution Toxic waste and air pollution Politics: no solution. I've come from the other side of town This concrete jungle's got me down I feel the heat, from the street Live in the city, Die in the city. Talk is cheap and the air smells shitty. Laugh in the city, Cry in the city. It's my home, but it sure ain't pretty. Uptown, downtown On the streets and underground People trying to get around. Skyscrapers, money makers New York Knicks and L.A. Lakers One too many circuit breakers. Live in the city, Die in the city. Talk is cheap and the air smells shitty. Laugh in the city, Cry in the city. It's my home, but it sure ain't pretty.
