Impellitteri - City's On Fire Lyrics
Long John Silver's got his head in the cloudsSleeping on the concrete and he's thinking out loudWhen's the man gonna bring the candy caneSelling dreams in the city lightsA stranger's kiss is the dead man's biteIt's a shame when their falling threw the cracksWhen the sun goes down,that's when the night rages onWhen the thrill is gone,that's when you've got to hang onThe city's on fire,Taking life upon demand,passing through the dirty handsThe city's on fire,And it's time to take it back from the manacross the tracksA street smart talker with a gun in his hand,A big John Wayne out to fight for the landLife's a dare when you're running with the packAnother day and another crime,One more deal and now you're doing time,Never learn when you fight the American wayWhen the sun goes down,that's when the night rages onWhen the thrill is gone,that's when you've got to hang onThe city's on fire,Taking life upon demand,passing through the dirty handsThe city's on fire,And it's time to take it back from the manacross the tracksThe city's on fire,You know you've lost controlwhen you're selling off your soulThe city's on fire,Stepping closer to the grave,you can't afford to look away[solo][pre-chorus][chorus 2]
