Music by Elton JohnLyrics by Bernie TaupinAvailable on the album Breaking HeartsIt's a hot summer night in the blackboard jungleCrime sits heavy on the city shoulderCan't get no work, I can't get a jobI just sit and play my radio in the parking lotWell they're breaking down doors in foreign countriesEverybody thinks somebody's hiding somethingThere's talk on the street and the nation is worriedBut you can't talk back when you're dead, when you're dead andburiedAnd Everybody's restlessEverybody's scaredEverybody's looking for something that just ain't thereEverybody's restlessEverybody's scared, they think we're all in dangerEveryone's taking cover from someone else's angerThe walls have ears, Big Brother's watchingThey tell us that we're poisoned from everything that we'retouchingWell we could be children from the way we're actingWe feed ourselves lies and then we scream for actionWe just breed and we lose our nerveAnd there's bombs going off in every corner of the world
