I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
Standin' at the dock-side lookin' out to sea
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
Madness at mid, mid, mid, midnight
Night in the city drivin' you insane
Night in the city, oh
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
Night in the city drivin' you insane
I just can't take anymore, I'm going in through the door
Night in the city, oh
When I saw her but she did not see me
And as her dreams sailed away she headed back for the day
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
Madness at mid, mid, mid, midnight
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
And there's no turnin' round 'cos it's just leavin' the ground
Madness at mid, mid, mid, midnight
And gettin' higher, higher
I was runnin' kinda lonely at the city place
Back to the city, city
In the city, city
Into the city, city
I waited for an hour, I never saw her face
I'll get you, yes, I'm gonna get you
There she stood with no hope because she'd missed the boat
Night in the city, oh
Crazy ladies that wait and slide around like a snake
Seven-four-seven just left from gate eleven
Drivin' you insane
Night in the city drivin' you insane
