Big City |
| Concrete and chaos rise up |
| Spiderweb across the land |
| Like a giant rash |
| Forests lie down below |
| Foundations of buildings in a bed of ash |
| Some people here got it real good |
| 'Cause the glass towers bring prosperity |
| And other people starve in the street |
| Because concrete knows no sympathy |
| Big city |
| Big city, it’s a wishing well |
| Big city, it’s a living hell |
| This town it’s fucking insane |
| How one will starve and another will gain |
| It’s like a giant mechanical brain |
| And the people are cells and the streets are veins |
| It thinks only of itself |
| A thousand limbs crawling as it expands and grows |
| And still the concrete sits there |
| Sits there stark grey and cold |
| Big city |
| Big city, it’s a wishing well |
| Big city, it’s a living hell |
| And I think I wanna be a brick layer |
| So I can put another brick in the wall |
| It’s sanitary rational and happy and sane |
| Growing like a flower to surround us all |
| Big city |
| Big city, it’s a wishing well |
| Big city, it’s a living hell |
| Big city |
| Big city, it’s a wishing well |
| Big city, it’s a living hell |
