See my face you know where I've been
Walking in jungle
Cruising down boulevard part of the race
Taking a tumbleLoving a stranger
Is fearing from danger
Is crying in some avenue
And soon the hate will be thereAssassin with gun is taking his aim
To target his rival
And tossing the street is a dangerous game
The stakes are survivalLove in that stranger
Still fearing that danger
Still crying in some avenue
And soon the hate will be there tooLife in the Big Apple moves very fast
And so must you
Do like the others do
And don't you drag your heels
Life in the Big Apple moves very fastCops on route are hot in pursuit
As windows are shattered
Caf and arcade are teeming with loot
The sidewalks are scatteredWalking down highways
Just seeing things my way
While dealer man enjoys his wealth
You spare the rope, he'll hang himselfLife in the Big Apple moves very fast
And so must you
Do like the others do
And don't you drag your heels
Life in the Big Apple moves very fast
And so must you
Do like the others do
And don't you drag your
Drag yourLife in the Big Apple moves very fast
And so must you
Do like the others do
And don't you drag your heelsLife in the Big Apple moves very fast
And so must you
Do like the others do
And don't you drag your heels
