Jackson Jackson - Cats Rats and Pigeons lyrics

I tell you this, I tell you this man I don't know what's gonna happen But I wanna get my kicks before the whole sh**house goes up in flames The fire is on the bird Welcome all races, nationalities, cultures, religions, aliens, cats, rats and pigeons Let's make a fortune, make some smoke We got to get our kicks before we go I heard that there's a storm rolling in from the bay I hope that it washes this bad mood away I gotta get out of bed before the end of the day 'cause there's a storm a coming, a big f**ing change Look at the girl with 4 phones in her pocket Look at the man helping you to see God Secretaries on a train in s**etary stockings I look at those stockings man I think I see God Daisies still kicking through the cracks of the pavement Bums still kicking in the cracks of the pavement Towers get higher, jobs get cheaper Highways get wider, love gets deeper I met my love by the gas works croft Dreamed a dream by the old can*l I kissed my girl by the factory wall Dirty old town, dirty old town I'm a young man in a town full of old men Own the whole world till I don't know when I'm an old man in a land full of young men Who want to be old men so they can make cash I'm a young man in a dirty old town Full of dirty old men with their dirty old heads So you never grow old but you can't be young Unless you fight for the things that have never been done In this time, in this town, in this street, in this city This is now our time when the lives get pretty But the town sh**s and burns and quivers in the night Tomorrow is as dirty as is clear tonight So let's raise a gla**, let's raise a cheer Because tomorrow this town might not be here And it's a dirty old world full of dirty old men And we're young and the future burns in our hands I'm gonna make me a good sharp axe Shining steel tempered in the fire We'll chop you down like an old dead tree Dirty old town, dirty old town
