Bright Lights, City Nights


Is that how you feel?
- trapped
- behind a brick wall
The grass is always greener on the other side is it?

Bright lights, city nights
- it called
- you felt the lure
- you took the bait

I'll tell you what is out there
- sin
- lust and immorality
- danger
- disease

You think you are trapped
But you don't know what you have
You are giving up heaven for a taste
Just a morsel
Plastic cakes in a display window
That's all it is
They are so expensive and all you get is a taste
You pay dearly
Then are left with nothing
NOTHING

You like to live the fast life in the city
But guess what
I'm real
I'm flesh and blood
And I'm hot too when I feel like it
Hotter than anything you can pay for

You want to be naughty
Like a schoolboy smoking behind a brick wall

You go and play
But I'm telling you now
If you play again
You won't be coming back

My price has just gone up
