[00:14.70]Smog is drifting aimlessly over these crowded streets
[00:22.92]Gloomy houses do their best to keep people in
[00:30.90]Dark days approaching, the brick lanes get lethal
[00:38.22]Under cheap signs in cardboard I see faces shine
[00:47.25]With struggles and pride
[00:52.20]Keep it all, keep it alive
[00:58.23]I understand how you're thinking
[01:03.99]Your profits are shrinking
[01:08.19]I know, it must hurt your feelings
[01:14.04]But these streets were built by my brothers,
[01:19.98]my sisters, dads and mothers
[01:24.15]Keep it alive, don't extort souls for malls
[01:32.25]Keep it alive, ain't just bricks gonna fall
[01:48.78]Take a look around the town and tell me what you see
[01:56.88]Where would you like to sit down and have a drink on me?
[02:04.80]My treat totally, just follow my lead
[02:12.12]So leave you credit cards at home for one day
[02:20.01]No shares sold today
[02:24.24]Watch this town when it's alive
[02:30.21]It might just blow your top off
[02:35.76]Make you laugh, or make you swallow
[02:40.17]I know, I've seen it every day
[02:46.08]Nuns, students, beggars, thieves and workmen
[02:51.96]Your own kind if you let them
[02:56.19]Keep it alive, don't extort souls for malls
[03:04.17]Keep it alive, ain't just bricks gonna fall
[03:26.19]What is a town, dead and buried?
[03:48.96]A legend for posterity
[04:42.78]Keep it, keep it alive.
