Burnt Out Town

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Yeah!I was walking down the street the other dayA woman stopped meShe said: why are you loking so down in the mouth?And I told herThis is a burnt out townIs full of dirty looksThe ashes are mainstreamAnd the mayor is cooking the booksI even like those friendsI turn them into crooksYeah this is the burnt out townYou wear the same clothesThey dancing on the glass ceilingsWhile the money flowsShe doesn't know who I amShe doesn't careYeah!Take that, honey!This is the burnt out townThe city has come to blowIt's a cruel realityA decent life exposedYeah, it's the burnt out townIt's going down but no one knowsYeah, it's the burnt out townAin't there but we're getting close
