Living Colour - Nightmare City lyrics

rate me

(Let the children go!x8)

Nobody knows the trouble she's seen

She is

She's my ghetto queen, for real!

In this brutal system

That knows no pity

Living in nightmare city

In this urban battle field

She knows no barricade with some kind of crazy hope in these days of rage

Living in nightmare city!

Living in nightmare city!

(Let the children go!x4)

Nobody knows the trouble she's seen

She is..

She's my ghetto queen, for real!

Here come the crawling politicians!

On their ghetto safari!

Living in nightmare city!!!

In this urban battle field!

She lives in smoke and hate with some kind of crazy hope in these days of rage!

Living in nightmare city!!!

(Let the children go!x4)

Nobody knows the trouble she's seen

She is

She's my ghetto queen

She speaks without saying a word!!

She screams without being heard!!

Living in nightmare city!!!!

She speaks without saying a word!!

She screams without being heard!!

Living in nightmare city!!!!

Nobody knows the trouble I see

She is

She's my ghetto queen
