| Running in slow motion through the neighborhood tonight
|
| Dodging bullets by the light of the moon
|
| Smoke a wet one to your head
|
| Now your heart is full of lead
|
| Left for dead on the avenues tonight
|
| When the sirens wail and the dogs begin to howl
|
| Salvation is nowhere to be found
|
| A demon called «vendetta» rules these avenues tonight
|
| A demon gonna burn this place to the ground
|
| Off the freeway stands a house built for every man
|
| Now it hides behind a 12-foot chain-link fence
|
| And business is on the boom with a mouthful of balloons
|
| Another kid jumps into the family trade
|
| The moon is full and bright on a long, hot summer night
|
| Mother weeps but she doesn’t make a sound
|
| Her child is gone. |
| Saw it on the evening news
|
| Another night down on the avenues
|
| Un sonbreso por mis hijos, por mis sombrinos tambien
|
| Un sonbreso por mis hermanos y los de todo mas
|
| When the sirens wail and the dogs begin to howl
|
| Salvation is nowhere to be found
|
| A demon called «vendetta» rules these avenues tonight
|
| A demon gonna burn this place down
|
| Another night down on the avenues |
