(verse 1)
They’re gonna’ shoot you down tonight
You don’t have a chance in hell
You’ll have to leave your so-called home
And perhaps it’s just as well
All the freedom’s choking you
And skyline hides the sky
Everyone said to come here
But nobody told you why
Get out, get out of the city
(chorus)
Workin’ is playin’ and playin’ is workin’
Come on let’s turn it up a little more
I’m gonna burn this piano down
And then I’m flying right on out the door
Trigger happy drummer keeps his guns firin’
Light the candle and back away
‘Cause when the curtain is gone and lights come down
Then it’s back on the train and away
Get out of the City
(verse 2)
You look into the darkness
While it shines the light on you
See the room as empty
Just to get you through
Lost your way around you
And it’s happenin’ my friend
Beware of Dr. Jeckyl
Because he’s Hydin’ out again, again
