Lyrics
Naked City
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.
Smoke and mirrors
The illusion called the city
Sweat and tears
Sizzling neon gypsy
Fantasy, hot and hungry tease
A stigma in every direction
Kept from light and forced to fight
I stalk the night like a barracuda
Destiny, what did you used to be
One mask on the flashing totem
Missed a step and found yourself
Down the hole of the inferno
Fantasy, hot and hungry tease
A stigma in every direction
Kept from light and forced to fight
I stalk the night like a barracuda
So fresh and clean, incandescent dream
Lipstick, brandy, and eye sheen
What does it mean, rainbowed gasoline
Sometimes I really like it
Kept from light and forced to fight
I'm secretly faithful to pleasure
Hungry nights in neon lights
I taste a rainbow of day-glo flavors
Idolize burning paradise
But the truth is in your complexion
Faces rife with city life
A stigma in every direction
So fresh and clean, incandescent dream
Lipstick, brandy, and eye sheen
What does it mean, rainbowed gasoline
A stigma in every direction
