These city streets of mine… they ain’t paved with gold

Concrete Jungle… tower blocks of stone

 

These streets sparkle & shine… with broken bottles & children’s screams

Traffic lights on red not green… a kaleidoscope of broken dreams

 

Ohhhhh…. But these streets are mine

Ohhhhh…. But these streets are mine

 

Standing on those streets tonight… different cars & different sharks

Close my eyes from the city lights… to pay the bills & satelitte

 

Ohhh… Arhh… Arhhh… Arh…

 

All dress up but no party night… my dress is tacky that’s what they like…

What did you go on that night… inside a bottle to numb this sight

 

Ohhhhh…. But these streets still shine

Ohhhhh…. You make them shine

 

Ohhh these streets of mine Ohhh

Ohhh… oohhh… you make them shine…

Ohhh… oohhh… you make them shine…

 

I’ve got blood on my hands… watch me bleed… oh watch me bleed… then watch me burn… oh watch me burn… oh watch me burn…
