Hey Lenny, don't those city lights look real pretty, |
|
As the moon cascades a smile over Main and Hastings, |
|
You came in from the hammer, |
|
On a Greyhound coach out west |
|
To find those narceritos waiting for you with a kiss |
|
I'll say my goodbyes, and leave you with a smile |
|
We don't have many friends 'round here |
|
But the gesture's worth the while |
|
'Cause the boys downtown and the government |
|
Aren't waiting for our votes, |
|
But the narceritos are making sure |
|
They get that tax we owe |
|
(Break) |
|
Did you hear they don't want your safe house here anymore, |
|
And they cut the arts with a steely knife, |
|
And sent kids off the war, |
|
'Cause there's no room for an addict, |
|
Or an artist in the house, |
|
This law and order all the while in a narceritos smile |
|
So Lenny, this city sleeps, and now I'll say goodbye |
|
'Cause we ain't got no business in these chambers of our time, |
|
So if you'd rather pay your money, |
|
On an 8-ball piece of mind |
|
Well it's all going to the government, |
|
And organized crime |
