Down In The City Lyrics - L.a. Guns - L.a. Guns

A boy shoots a gun, a girl looks for fun 

runnin' round in the hollywood streets 

shakedown all around, 

lay your dirty money down 

you can't always get what you need 

midnight's cool, right, die in the moonlight 

no cure for the social disease 

sex fiends, acid queens, livin' on a bad dream 

this town never sleeps 

down in the city 

gettin' what you need 

down in the city 

make your poor heart bleed 

livin' by the trigger, always better if it's bigger 

won't catch me down on my knees 

shake it down, lay it down, sin city all around 

hollywood's the city of sleaze 

loose change, no-names, lookin' for a fast way 

to make it to the top ot the heap 

face down, gutter bound, 

laughin' at the poor clown 

walkin' on his name in the street 

down in the city 

give you what ya need 

down in the city 

make your poor heart bleed 

ha, ha, ha, ha 

a boy shoots a gun, a girl looks for fun 

runnin' round in the hollywood streets 

shakedown all around, 

lay your dirty money down 

you can't always get what you need 

loose change, no-names, lookin' for a fast way 

to make it to the top of the heap 

face down, gutter bound, 

laughin' at the poor clown 

walkin on his name in the street 

down in the city 

give you what ya need 

down in the city 

make your poor heart bleed 

down in the city 

give you what ya need 

down in the city 

it's good enough for me 

you're gonna burn 

ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
