City of Despair

Oh, city of despair Come live here Where opportunities abound In the streets they can be found No jobs to pull you down Just a place to hang around Come live here Oh, city of despair Chase this bullet from my gun I sure hope you're having fun Let's light-up the morning sky Before the sun gives it a try Where opportunies abound In the streets they can be found Oh, city of despair Come live here There is no need to get ahead Social cancers claims our dead It's no place for open choices Pure rage drives our inner voices Leaders built this prison city before the laws were ever broken Throw us pennies from their coffers They don't hear a single word we've spoken Our institutions are overcrowded Our numbers growing country-wide Soon every city will be exploding and you'll still be asking; "Why?" The answer is quite simple We are sure you see it clear 'Where?' you invite In any City of Despair
