Lea Thompson & Thomas Dolby - Hunger City lyrics

rate me

Stay home, city boy

With that television

Warm synthetic light

Keep your mind off real life

Oh, stick to television

I can make it here in hunger city

Nothings 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

So the day folds into night

And you slide down in your easy chair

Blue cosmetic lights

Beamed to you by satellite

Call you to the shelter

I can make it here in hunger city

Nothings 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

Solo

I can make it here in hunger city

Even though they'll eat me

Just to stay alive

Hunger city

Like a poison lullabye

Pump pump pump inside your head

Momma's pride and joy

Ha, slithers down the drain instead

Fast food for the mutants

I can make it here in hunger city

Nothings 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

In hunger city

Hunger city
