Somewhere out on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be something better
But there's nowhere else in sight.
It's survival in the city, children
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity, no
When you're down that's where you stay UUUU
In the city AHAAA
In the city AHAAA
break
I was born here in the city
With my back against the wall
Nothing grows and life ain't very pretty
No-one's there to catch you when you fall
Somewhere out on that horizon
Far away from the neon sky
I know there must be something better
And I can't stay another night
In the city AHAAA
In the city AHAAA
In the city AHAAA
