Lyrics

Hunger City

[Intro]

(Ah-ooh, ah-ooh)

[Verse 1]

Stay at home, city boy

With that television on

Warm synthetic light

Keep your mind off real life

Oh, stick to television

[Chorus]

I can make it here in Hunger City

Nothing's gonna stop me

I know I'll survive

I can take it here in Hunger City

Even though they'll eat me

Just to stay alive

Hunger City

(Ah-ooh)

[Verse 2]

So the day folds into night

And you slide down in your easy chair

Blue cosmetic lights

Are beamed to you by satellite

Call you to the shelter

[Chorus]

I can make it here in Hunger City

Nothing's gonna stop me

I know I'll survive

I can take it here in Hunger City

Even though they'll eat me

Just to stay alive

Hunger City

(Ah-ooh)

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

I can make it here in Hunger City

Even though they'll eat me

Just to stay alive

Hunger City

[Verse 3]

Like a poison lullaby

Pump, pump, pump inside your head

Mama's pride and joy, uh

Slithers down the drain instead

Fast food for the mutants

[Chorus]

I can make it here in Hunger City

Nothing's gonna stop me

I know I'll survive

I can take it here in Hunger City

Even though they'll eat me

Just to stay alive

Hunger City

[Outro]

In Hunger City

(Ah-ooh)

Hunger City
