Liberty City

Welcome to Liberty City It's drizzling and no one knows what they're doing Control units are laid out geometrically Inside the patients suck on the glass teats of their rented color TVs Struggling to pay the rent, the main worry's job security The busier you are, the less you see I'll find a key and try to get out of my dormitory Visit my so-called friends There's the bitter, aggressive one The eternally well-meaning but broken one I'll take a walk into the conquered city I walk past the butchers, I look up at the offices I'll give a wave to the management mercenaries There they go, don't their clean clothes look so pretty? How to awaken them from the comforts of slavery One by one, two by two, they all join the debris Welcome to Liberty City The busier you are, the less you see Welcome to Liberty City The bitter, aggressive one The eternally well-meaning but broken one ...knows what they're doing Buy a car and watch it rust Struggling to pay the rent, the main worry's job security Now and then we can afford a little luxury Look in the shops, turn a blind eye The city's people buy chickens cooking on electric spits Roasting in the windows as the public passes by As the public passes by I'll take a walk into the conquered city Welcome to Liberty City The busier you are, the less you see Welcome to Liberty City Busier you are, the less you see Welcome to Liberty City It's drizzling One night in desperation a young man gets a gun
