City Life

I'M UP ON THE ROOFTOP 
I'M CALLING IT HOME 
THE WIFE AND I LOVE IT 
IT'S A LITTLE LIKE LIVIN' IN A CIVIL WAR ZONE 
THE STREETS ARE ELECTRIC 
THE SKY IS ALIVE 
UNLIMITED ACTION 
IT LOOKS LIKE THE FUTURE HAS FINALLY ARRIVED

I LOVE THIS CITY 
YOU FEEL SO ALIVE 
THERE'S SO MUCH EXCITEMENT  
I HOPE I SURVIVE

THERE'S HIGH-MAINTENANCE WOMEN 
AND IDIOT SONS 
AND GENTLEMEN LOSERS 
AND RUNAWAY CHILDREN WITH NO PLACE TO RUN 
THE GIRL WITH NEEDLE AND CHILD 
THE GUY WITH THE GUN 
THE FALLEN BELIEVERS GONE WILD 
THE LEFTOVER HIPPIES 
THE 50-FOOT WOMAN

I LOVE THIS CITY...
