It's getting hot in the city
It's getting hot in the city
And the money's tight
And the pressure's starting to rise
And the rats are running loose out on the streets
Don't lose your head
Don't lose your head
Try to keep your feet
♪
And in the darkest corners
Where the devil takes his due
There's a little bit of real estate
Waiting just for you
So try to keep a little money safe
Just in case
But sometimes it's not enough
Sometimes you're just too late
♪
Cos no one's gonna help you
You're completely on your own
At the mercy of the seeds
That others may have sown
And the people with the money
They won't be giving it away
Cos they don't want to be where you are
Not on this or any other day
