Cruel Town
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
runaways and rapists
fill the streets at night
broken bottles glimmer in the city lights
in the alleys cold wind blows
in the crowd of people
in the subway trains
no one looks into your eyes
in the park a junkie dies
aaah
cruel town, it's a cruel town
cold people cruel town
cruel town, it's a cruel town
if you fall you stay down
cold city, cruel system
nothing's made for people
see the run down alcoes
drift in the mall
laws change and the goverments fall
but the beggars all remain
aaah
cruel town, it's a cruel town
cold people cruel town
cruel town, it's a cruel town
if you fall you stay down
cold city, cruel system
nothing's made for people
cruel town, it's a cruel town
cold people cruel town
cruel town, it's a cruel town
if you fall you stay down
you stay down
you never get up
you never get up
