down here we walk a little faster
  down here we grow up real tight
  down here we stick together
  because down here you've gotta fight
    can live off this country's waste
  we consume so much in this rat race
  (the city is a) human breeding ground of exploitation
  but I won't become jaded
    IN THE CITY
    it's capitalism at its best
  people living neck to neck
  their glass buildings won't fall on their own
  so we should be throwing stones!
    IN THE CITY
    some of us were born here
  some of us were brought here
  some of us have moved here
  but none of us can leave here
    IN THE CITY
