In the City

In the city there's a thousand things

I wanna say to you

But whenever I approach you

You make me look a fool

I wanna say, I wanna tell you

About the young ideas

But you turn them into fears

In the city there's a thousand faces

All shinin' bright

And those golden faces

Are under twenty-five

They wanna say, they gonna tell you

About the young idea

You better listen, now you've said your bit

Go

And I know what you're thinkin'

You still think I am crap

But you better listen, man

Because the kids know where it's at

In the city there's a thousand men in uniforms

And I've heard they now have the right to, to kill a man

We wanna say, well, we gonna tell you

About a young idea

And if it don't work

At least we'll say we tried

In the city

In the city

In the city

In the city

In the city there's a thousand things

I wanna say to you
