Burnin' Down The City

(album: VOA - 1984)

Oh, yeah! Uh!

See that face, so bright and new
He'll burn it down, that's what he'll do
Man is mad, he lost his head
He'll paint this whole town red, oh yeah

Let's get it right
Rock, rocking, ball, break
Art for art sake, oh yeah

The midnight shift from two til five
Workin hard to stay alive
Can't slow down, can't stop
Stay on the move to keep on top, oh yeah

Let's get it right now
Rock, rocking, ball, break
Art for art sake, yeah, uh
Break, rocking, ball, rap
Getting up is where it's at

C'mon now, burning down the city
Yeah, let's get it right
Burning down the city
Yeah, let's strike tonight

Every night he rocks this place
He burns the best, but never shows his face, oh, no.
Burns the walls, burns a truck,
Burns a trian, don't give a fuck, no, no.

One more time
Rock, rocking, ball, break
Art for art sake, oh yeah
Get it, break, rocking, ball, rap
Getting up is where it's at, yeah, that's right

One more time now, burning down the city
Yeah, let's do it right
Burning down the city
Yeah, let's strike tonight

Hey
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
Hey, uh

Break, rocking, ball, rap
Gettin up is where it's at, yeah

Come on now, burning down the city
Yeah, let's do it right
Burning down the city
Yeah, let's strike tonight

Oh, yeah, come on and burning down the city
Let's do it right, hey
Burning down the city, hey
Let's strike tonight

C'mon, let's get it right
Let's get it right
Let's get it, get it, get it, burn it
Let's do it right, hey

Burn it, burn it down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Let's strike tonight, uh
Let's do it right
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Let's strike tonight
Let's do it right
