CITY`S ON FIRE lyrics

Artist  : IMPELLITTERI 
Song : CITY`S ON FIRE
 

Long John Silver’s got his head in the
clouds
Sleeping on the concrete and he’s
thinking out loud
When’s the man gonna bring
the candy cane
Selling dreams in the city
lights
A stranger’s kiss is the dead man’s
bite
It’s a shame when their falling threw
the cracks

When the sun goes
down,
that’s when the night rages on
When
the thrill is gone,
that’s when you’ve got
to hang on

The city’s on fire,
Taking
life upon demand,
passing through the dirty
hands
The city’s on fire,
And it’s time
to take it back from the man 
across the
tracks

A street smart talker with a gun in
his hand,
A big John Wayne out to fight for
the land
Life’s a dare when you’re running
with the pack
Another day and another
crime,
One more deal and now you’re doing
time,
Never learn when you fight the American
way

When the sun goes down,
that’s
when the night rages on
When the thrill is
gone,
that’s when you’ve got to hang
on

The city’s on fire,
Taking life
upon demand,
passing through the dirty
hands
The city’s on fire,
And it’s time
to take it back from the man 
across the
tracks
The city’s on fire,
You know
you’ve lost control
when you’re selling
off your soul
The city’s on
fire,
Stepping closer to the grave,
you
can’t afford to look
away
