High in the City

Break them rocks, do your time
Life in the city in a world of crime
One hundred stories high, and underground
A neon flash on and the siren sound

Gettin' high on the city
High on the town
Gettin' high on the city
It's a merry-go-round
Sometimes it's a pity
But it won't get me down
I'm gettin' high on the city
And babe, you're goin' down

A race of rats in a chase for fame
Now you're up in lights, keep on playin' your game
We headline tonight, the sound is alright
We'll move from town to town
We mesmerize and never let you down

Gettin' high on the city
High on the town
Gettin' high on the city
It's a merry-go-round
Well, sometimes it's a pity
But it won't get me down
Gettin' high on the city
And babe, you're goin' down, down, down, down, down, alright

Round, round, and round, and round, and round, and round
On, on and on, yeah
Well, yeah

Gettin' high on the city
High on the town
Gettin' high on the city
Life's a merry-go-round
Well, sometimes it's a pity
I'm never gonna let me down
Gettin' high on the city
And you're goin' down, down, down, down, down
