Lyrics

In the city there's a thousand things I wanna say to you

But whenever I approach you, you make me look a fool

I wanna say

I wanna tell you

About the young ideas

But you turn them into fears

In the city there's a thousand faces all shining bright

And those golden faces are under 25

They wanna say

They gonna tell ya

About the young idea

You better listen now, you've said your bit-a

And I know what you're thinkin'

You still think I'm crap

But you'd better listen, man

Because the kids know where it's at

In the city there's a thousand men in uniforms

And I've heard they now have the right to, to kill a man

We wanna say

We gonna tell ya

About the young idea

And if it don't work, at least we still tried

In the city, in the city

In the city

In the city

In the city there's a thousand things I wanna say to you
