In the City (Live on MTV, Warner Burbank Studios, Burbank, CA, 4/25-26/1994) Lyrics

Somewhere out on that horizon
Out beyond the neon lights
I know there must be somethin' better
But there's nowhere else in sight

It's survival in the city, children
When you live from day to day
City streets don't have much pity, so
When you're down, that's where you'll stay

In the city, oh-oh
In the city, oh-oh

I was born here in the city
With my back against the wall
Nothing grows, and life ain't very pretty
No one's there to catch you when you fall, oh

Somewhere out on that horizon
Far away from the neon sky
I know there must be somethin', must be somethin' better
I can't stay another night

In the city, oh-oh
Another night
In the city, oh-oh
Another night
In the city, oh-oh
In the city, oh-oh
