Big City

Chorus:
Big City
Bright lights
Still yu dark
In your alleys. Rep.

(1)
Nothing for nothing
In Big City
Yu pay
With what yu've got
Life so light
In Big City
That's all, yu've got
Nights dem cold
With fear and death
Street children
Sleeping in the sand
The youths are tomarrow, yet
Where are your plans
Big City

Chorus:
Big City
Bright lights
Still yu're dark
In your alleys
Big City
Day light
Still yu're dark
In your alleys

(2)
Pa-na-nap, pa-pa-pa-nap
Pa-na-na-na
Pa-na-nap, pa-pa-pa-nap
Pa-na-na-na-na
Nights them cold
With fear and death
Street children
Sleeping in the sand
The youths are tomarrow, yet
Where are your plan
Big City

Chorus:
Big City
Day light
Still yu dark
In your alleys
Big City
Bright lights
Still yu dark
In your alleys

Solo:

Chorus:
Big City
Bright lights
Still yu dark
In your alleys
Big City
Day light
Still yu dark
In your alleys
Metropalis!
You're dark …

Bridge:
How can yu spread
Nu-clear war
When children die
Of hunger
Though they're dieing
Day to day,
For you
There's no tomarrow. Rep. 4 times

Metropalis!
Yu dark
In your alleys
In your alleys
Who's gonna show
The children the way!
