[Intro]
You in the mood to hear something new? (Yeah!)
This is a bit speculative
This has not been tried in front of actual humans before
At least not actual humans who've paid to be there
That's a bit of a different thing
[Verse 1]
The city's hungry
Hear that rumbling underground
The city's hungry
Hear that rumbling underground
You better think twice
Before you go downtown
[Verse 2]
Man on a park bench
Face in a paper sack
Man on a park bench
Face in a paper sack
Look at him flying
Above those tall smokestacks
[Verse 3]
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 teardrops when it rains
You in the mood to hear something new? (Yeah!)
This is a bit speculative
This has not been tried in front of actual humans before
At least not actual humans who've paid to be there
That's a bit of a different thing
[Verse 1]
The city's hungry
Hear that rumbling underground
The city's hungry
Hear that rumbling underground
You better think twice
Before you go downtown
[Verse 2]
Man on a park bench
Face in a paper sack
Man on a park bench
Face in a paper sack
Look at him flying
Above those tall smokestacks
[Verse 3]
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 teardrops when it rains
