Kraak & Smaak - Good for the City lyrics

[Verse 1: Sam Duckworth] There was a fire in the alley All the rats would fled the scene The bottleneck of human traffic and their mobile phones Could not preserve the memory All of the photos and the stories Quickly buckled on the weight The bureaucratic indignation And it's their ticket tape parade [Refrain] This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty [Verse 2] I call upon the prosecution Please identify your case The star witness from the counsel Quickly put them in their place He laid his plans out on the table As all our promises were sold To build a temple of consumption Where stood a temple of the soul He said [Refrain] This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty The city The city Imagine it there Imagine it there The city The city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty There looking oh so pretty [Verse 3] Oh you could hear the shrieks from miles As they tore straight through the gla** A ghostly choir resurrected As they await some base guitars They gig is set upon the carca** With broken hearts we watched it fall The cornerstone of this fine city A monument to urban stroll [Refrain] This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty This would be good for the city Imagine it there looking oh so pretty
