Sin of the City

Coat check girl up in Happyland

Has a violent row with a Cuban man

Julio leaves in a drunken rage -

Comes back with the gasoline

The club has no fire exit

The club only had one door

Only five people came out alive

The sin is that 89 died

89 dead! 89 dead! 89 dead! 89 dead!

The sin is that a year and a half before

The fire chief's out and he's raising cain

Brands Happyland hazzard close down but no.

No-one ever paid him no mind..

No-one ever paid him no mind..

No-one ever paid him no mind..

No-one ever paid him no mind..

No-one ever paid him no mind..

City living heavy trouble city living rough we are given angry hearts but

anger's not enough

(The sin of the city, the sin of the city)

City living heavy trouble city living rough

(The sin of the city, the sin of the city)

We are given angry hearts but anger's not enough

Daily News reviews of the landlords life

Found six thousand code ciolations light.

The city has more a hundred thousand wars

All for one of Forbes' four hundred whores.

Just one fire cracker on a big bondfire

Of self serving penny pinching wiseguy style.

Never allowing for the human condition. (hayyyeah)

Never allowing for the human condition. (hayyyeah)

Never allowing for the numen condition.

The sin is that these guys survive.

City living heavy trouble city living rough we are given angry hearts but

anger's not enough

(The sin of the city, the sin of the city)

City living heavy trouble city living rough

(The sin of the city, the sin of the city)

We are given angry hearts but anger's not enough

City living heavy trouble city living rough we are given angry hearts but

anger's not enough

(The sin of the city, the sin of the city)

City living heavy trouble city living rough

(The sin of the city, the sin of the city)

We are given angry hearts but anger's not enough

The sin of the city yehh

Stop killing your people now.

Stop wasting your people now.

Your jacking your people off

Sin of the City, yehh

Stop killing you're people how.

You're wasting you're people yeahh.
