Somewhere out on that horizon Out beyond the neon lights I know there must be something 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, no When you´re down that´s where you stay In the city In the city 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 Somewhere out on that horizon Far away from the neon sky I know there must be something, must be something better And I can´t stay another night In the city Another night In the city Another night
