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
In the city
In the city
