Intro: They say this town will kill you They say this town ainït got no soul This town could take a childïs smile And turn it into stone But donït you think I know that This place has cut me to the bone Trouble crawling up your back Fear just eats your soul You say this town will eat you up You say this town ainït got no heart You try to lear all your lines And try to play the part With all this double dealing I tell you brother, you get smart Here in Kickback City Youïve lost before you start People in subways look nearly half-dazed to me Renting tomorrow Investing in sorrow No belief Solo (like Vers) Faces in didestreets, hiding like angels from grace Selling you sorrow Renting tomorrow Youïre out of place They say this town will kill you They say this town ainït got no soul Theyïll set you up and pull the stitch Til youïre unravelled on the floor But I wonït let it beat me Though troubleïs knocking on my door Somehow itïs just your smile That keeps me coming back for more Here in Kickback City Feel Iïm goinï down slow Here in Kickback City Feel Iïm goinï down slow
