Here we are in the big, big city
Plenty of ways to spend your money
Getting ripped off is a way of life
Stick your money on a skin flint knife
No,no,no,no it's too s*****
I don't want to live in the big, big city
Tourist attractions look at that!
Buy me a plastic policeman's hat
But there's a riot uptown they're fighting back
And the boys in blue are wearing black
Flying squad what a farce
If pigs could fly they wouldn't need cars
Got control over us all
New Scotland Yard ,the new Berlin Wall
Give me a break don't tell me
That life is great in the big city
It's all based on money and greed
Everything you'll never need
Plenty of ways to spend your money
Getting ripped off is a way of life
Stick your money on a skin flint knife
No,no,no,no it's too s*****
