| Lyrics |
Just a' urchinlivin' under the street
I'm a hard casethat's tough to beat
I'm your charity case
So buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Ragz to richez or so they say
Ya gotta-keep pushin'for the fortune and fame
It's all a gamble
When it's just a game
Ya treat it like a capital crime
Everybody's doin' their time
Chorus:
Take me down
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Take me home
Strapped in the chairof the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here I can't quite remember
The surgeon general saysit's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarettebut I can't see
Tell me who you're gonna believe
Chorus
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
Captain America's been torn apart
Now he's a court jesterwith a broken heart
He said-
Turn me around andtake me back to the start
I must be losin' my mind-"
Are you blind?"I've seen it all a million times
Chorus
