the city is hungry

the city's hungry

hear that rumblin' under ground

the city's hungry

hear that rumblin' under ground

you better think twice

before you go downtown

man on a park bench

face in a paper sack

man on a park bench

face in a paper sack

look at him flyin'

above those tall smoke stacks

river wrapped in concrete

hills made to stand in chains?

river wrapped in concrete

hills made to stand in chains?

ain't the city pretty

shines like tear drops when it rains

the city's hungry

hear that rumblin' under ground

the city's hungry

hear that rumblin' under ground

my baby grabs me

she starts to dance around

she starts to dance around

she starts to dance around
