Concrete Blonde - City Screaming lyrics

been on the bus since a quarter to one i'm bakin like a chicken on the bus in the settin sun home home home under the window is that a shot or a car i don't know i dont know i dont know city smoke and city choke and crackin open i hear the city screaming i hear the city screaming 24 hours all night all day the city hums and boils and cracks and beats away ?(stow)? them around stick em over a fire no wonder everybody's strung up tighter than a god damn piano wire city smoke and city choke and crackin open i hear the city screaming i hear the city sream crack the whip and mr. jack knife we are doing the trip on the corner underneath the street light late night oneof the home boys just take it on home sweet home well you can blow your own self away but leave the rest of us alone the city die and city cry and you and I say i hear the city screaming i hear the city screaming i hear the city screaming i hear the city screaming
