Speak to me of universal law
The who*es hustle and the hustlers who*e
All around me, people bleed
Speak to me your song of greed
Speak to me of your inner charm
Of how you'll keep me safe from harm
I don't think so, I don't see
Speak to me of your inner peace
Little people at the amusement park
City people in the dark
Speak to us, send us a sign
Just give us something to keep us trying
And the who*es hustle and the hustlers who*e
Too many people are out of love
The who*es hustle and the hustlers who*e
The city's ripped right to the core
Speak to me of h**n and speed
Genocide and suicide of syphilis and greed
Speak to me, the language of love
The language of violence, the language of the heart
This isn't the first time I lost my money or love
Heaven and earth don't ever mean enough
Speak to me of h**n and speed
Just gimme something I can believe
The who*es hustle and the hustlers who*e
Too many people are out of love
The who*es hustle and the hustlers who*e
The city's ripped right to the core
