That stops you taking the city
Now her girl has a dream, but it begins like the end
(Paris commune)
(Girlfriends)
(Shot into eternity)
Flipped pieces of coin
Walled out of the city clubbed down from uptown
(Left it in a jiffy)
She spent a lifetime deciding, how to run from it
(Grafted in a jiffy)
(The guards are itchy)
Ghetto defendant it is heroin pity
(Addicts of metropolis)
Not tear gas nor baton charge
Slamdance the cosmopolis
Not tear gas nor baton charge
Sprayed pest from the nest, run out to Barrio town
Enlighten the populace
Once fate had a witness and the years seemed like friends
(1873)
Ghetto defendant, it is heroin pity
(Hooked in metropolis)
Hungry darkness of living who will thirst in the pit?
(Jean Arthur Rimbaud)
His face painted whiter, and he was laid to rest
(Not sitting pretty)
Ghetto defendant it is heroin pity
(Died in Marseille)
Ghetto defendant it is heroin pity
(Shut up in etenity)
(Strung out committee)
That stops you taking the city
Burnt the ghettos in their chests
Not tear gas nor baton charge
Not tear gas nor baton charge
Do the worm on the Accropolis
Forced to watch at the feast, then sweep up the night
(Buried in Charleville)
(Methadone kitty)
Exchanged for birthright
It is heroin pity
That stops you taking the city
That stops you taking the city
(Broken bottles)
(Strung out committee)
Not tear gas nor baton charge
That stops you taking the city
That stops you taking the city
Ghetto defendant it is heroin pity
(Iron serenity)
Not tear gas nor baton charge
By the bodyguards of greed for disturbing the tomb
His words like flamethrowers
Not tear gas nor baton charge
Addict of metropolis
The ghetto prince of gutter poets was bounced out of the room
