Abandon City Lyrics

Have you seen the color of the water coming out of your tap?
Did you hear the chatter of the hammer when you're trying to nap?
There's nothing on the counter, at the A and P store
The bank don't even bother now to open the door
Nitty gritty, pity, abandon cityEverybody over the side, the hour is late
They're closing the gate, no time to decide
Abandon city, yeah, you better run for your lives
There's nothing to spare, the cupboard is bare
The bees have all left the hiveSomeone's doing a non-stop performance of 'The Rape Of The Lock'
No one's got the nerve to take a tiptoe after seven o'clock
And everybody's looking for a piece of the rock
And I just want to get my Cadillac out of hock
Too much nitty gritty, abandon cityEverybody over the side, the hour is late
They're closing the gate, no time to decide
Abandon city, yeah, you better run for your lives
Yeah, there's nothing to spare, the cupboard is bare
The bees have all left the hive, yeah, run for your lifeYou better run for your life
You better run for your life

You better run for your life
You better run for your life
You better run for your lifeAbandon city, abandon city
Abandon city, abandon cityAbandon city, abandon city
Abandon city, abandon city
Abandon city, abandon city
Abandon city, abandon city
