When the sun goes down on the city street
|
And the shadows move through the night
|
Daddy’s little angel begins her dance
|
To the beat of the flashing lights
|
Down the murder mile with a seductive smile
|
She plays a desperate game
|
With a sweet caress another trick is blessed
|
On the corner of the 3rd and Main
|
In the city of pain
|
Through the toxic fog down the dirty streets
|
I follow her steps like a cat
|
Past the drugged out scenes
|
The transvestite queens
|
Past the order side of the tracks
|
She’s a hard sell as she casts her spell
|
She’s the wicked wich of the west
|
The touch of her skin the smell of her sin
|
My fantasies burn through my flesh
|
In the city of pain
|
In the city of pain
|
You giving away your body
|
Burning away your body
|
Deep in the heart of night
|
Maybe you need somebody
|
Maybe you meed somebody
|
Deep in the heart of night
|
Bad to the bone you gotta
|
Make at alone you gotta
|
Right to be wrong to be right
|
In the city of pain
|
In the city of pain
|
She burns hot for now but she knows somehow
|
It’s only a matter of time |
She’s gotta make her play until the day
|
When she lays all on a line
|
Through the broken glass of atonement window
|
Through the eyes of a little girl
|
You can see you can see her hopeless dreams
|
Light up a hopeless world — In the city of pain
|
In the city of pain |
