Lyrics Crime and the City - Coliseum

Crime and the City

Sacrifice, for the city’s sake you’ll watch it incinerate
Sacrifice, takes a fire to wash away the human waste
Was it a crime?
Was it a crime?
Leave a burning wake in the city’s place, was it a crime?
A disgrace, to scrape a city whole and watch it degenerate
A disgrace, like a parasite.
Dig it out to desecrate
Was it a crime?
Was it a crime?
Leave a burning wake in the city’s place, was it a crime?
