Oi! Oi! Oi! Oi!
When trying to stay alive in
Philadelphia
Nobody's satisfied, nobody'll help ya
We're brushed aside like the factories
We're falling to bits, it's a mystery
Unemployed fight for a place in
The gutter
As a drunken rapist k**s another
Mafia bombs and limosine wars
Want to make their dealer's profits soar
How long can they keep us in a
Cage
Immigrants are destroying this place
The money stays in suburbia
And the poor will steal for another year
Militant mobs outgun the police
As the bodies pile up it's only routine
Liberals give criminals another chance
And question why the ghettos expand
Burned out, bombed out
Neighborhoods
From their will never come an ounce of good
Junkies crawl to their next connection
But the streets survive all this corruption
Well trying to stay alive in
Philadelphia
Nobody's satisfied, nobody'll help ya
We're brushed aside like the factories
We're falling to bits, its a mystery
