Living and dying

In Chinatown

Yes they're living and dying down in old Chinatown

You better look around

Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown

Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown

Laughing and crying you know it's a fact

They're not laughing they are crying

`Cause they won't be back

Oh no you don't come back

Not from Chinatown

Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown

Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown

Chinatown, it's a different scene

There are people there, they are so obscene

If you see what I mean

Then they've sold you the dream

Down in Chinatown

What goes up it must come down

Living and dying

There is no release

Living and dying

There is no relief

There is no beliefs

Not in Chinatown

Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown

Man, you don't stand a chance if you go down in Chinatown
