Where the future stalks the American dream
It's all music
My feet are light when I'm downtown
Walkin' 'round downtown
It's all music
Downtown, the nights are longer
It's all music
Broadway, down on the corner
The shouts and cries of the human disasters
It's all in sight when I'm downtown
I feel alright when I'm downtown
'Cause they're downtown
Downtown, there's every language
Downtown
Every human sound, downtown
I cast my hopes on the human tide
The Bible screamer, the plasma donor
The rats run free and the winos crawl
It's all music
Downtown, they got to think a little quicker
Buses, car horns, ghetto blasters
I've got this place I'm renting
My head feels light when I'm downtown
It's all music
Downtown, wandering all around, downtown
It cost me next to nothing, downtown
I feel alright when I'm downtown
Eight blocks south of city hall
I gotta turn the sound down
I place my bet and let it ride
Downtown, the breaks are harder
Downtown, there's every kind of people
I'm open wide when I'm downtown
Downtown, the thieves are smarter
Downtown, the sights are stronger
Darkness falls on the vast machine
Nobody comes around telling me
