Praying Mantis - Rich City Kids lyrics

As nighttime falls they come alive And show their pretty faces Out come the flash cars And the girls who wait for longed embraces The work they do is short and sweet The money's there for the taking Well daddy's rich and he don't care It's all part of junior's making Stay alive like the rich kids Stay alive in the city Stay alive like the rich kids Don't get shot in the city The esteem they hold has not been earned But money talks so loudly They walk on ground that's shared by stars Who've climbed their ladders proudly Society holds this place in our dreams For those who ain't sitting waiting While the rest of us stare in vain It's all part of junior's making Stay alive like the rich kids Stay alive in the city Stay alive like the rich kids Don't get shot in the city False friends know how far to go Before they can be caught But who knows who the real ones are For only these have yet to be bought The work they do is short and sweet The money's there for the taking Well daddy's rich and he don't care It's all part of junior's making
