Lyrics

Yeah! I was walking down the street the other day A woman stopped me She said: why are you loking so down in the mouth? And I told her This is a burnt out town Is full of dirty looks The ashes are mainstream And the mayor is cooking the books I even like those friends I turn them into crooks Yeah this is the burnt out town You wear the same clothes They dancing on the glass ceilings While the money flows She doesn't know who I am She doesn't care Yeah! Take that, honey! This is the burnt out town The city has come to blow It's a cruel reality A decent life exposed Yeah, it's the burnt out town It's going down but no one knows Yeah, it's the burnt out town Ain't there but we're getting close
