|
This city's burning out of control |
|
The heat is rising and bustin' through |
|
The flames are creeping higher and higher |
|
You stand too close and you'll catch on fire |
|
You got me jobs so you hang around |
|
And stand on the corner and spit on the ground |
|
One foot in the gutter and one in the street |
|
One more step and you're a piece of meat |
|
And if you could get out you know you'd go |
|
'Cause you feel like a sewer rat stuck in a hole |
|
Nowhere to run to, nowhere to go |
|
As you cry from the heart and fire in this soul |
|
What can you do when you're stuck in a box |
|
The doors are barred with double locks |
|
The walls push in, your neck's in a noose |
|
You have the strength 'cause you have to break loose |
|
If you could get out you know you'd go |
|
'Cause you feel like a sewer rat stuck in a hole |
|
Nowhere to run to, nowhere to go |
|
As you cry from the heart and fire in this soul |
|
Fire in this soul |
|
Fire in this soul |
|
Sleeze on the sidewalk and trash in the can |
|
The city knows how to break a man |
|
One way street, nowhere to turn |
|
You light the fire and watch it burn |
|
If you could get out you know you'd go |
|
'Cause you feel like a sewer rat stuck in a hole |
|
Nowhere to run to, nowhere to go |
|
As you cry from the heart and fire in this soul |
|
Fire in this soul |
