the city sleeps (исполнитель: sandpeople)
[bad word] The city sleeps, and no consciousness thrives While the city sleeps, my thoughts are alive Underneath the city streets, we wait to colonize So fall in line (fall in line), fall in line (x2) Sapient: I reach out and touch you from the vocal booth You pay a large fee when your enlightenment is overdue This is a substitute from you day to day living spree Of sidewalks and traffic cause life stops for magic Soundly, the city sleeps Where are the dreams I put sand in the machines, till my horizon is clean I’m not observin’ the patient I want the service I’ll be assertive and take it While I’m burning your stages Driftin away on my ocean of notebooks and paper cuts, lazy [bad word] Even when I scream, nobody’s wakin up Morning [bad word] and you will understand my science This is a life taking agency, you are the clients [bad word] The city sleeps, and no consciousness thrives While the city sleeps, my thoughts are alive Underneath the city streets, we wait to colonize So fall in line (fall in line), fall in line (x2) Ethic: As the light of the moon starts writing a tune I take a breath that excepts what I’m tryin to do I’m just, eyin a view, and digestin the few New thoughts this block has got for my crew As the, city gets sand trapped hands flat Will voices in the air echo around the mat From the void that is there when ya’ll are takin a nap This is a world that is rare An I’m tired of that Yo I’m, wired --- ----, like I acquired a knack for Livin life on the edge when I’d like to relax I’m concise on the track as I tight walk the night stalk Sleep through the day and I rise when the light drops [bad word] The city sleeps, and no consciousness thrives While the city sleeps, my thoughts are alive Underneath the city streets, we wait to colonize So fall in line (fall in line), fall in line (x2) Mo-B: It’s sun down [bad word] down neighborhood is shut down Sidewalks seem to envy nicer blocks up town And under bridges lot of people sleepin underrated Lucky it’s a summer night cause some are slumber stated Wonder waits till all ones hope moves known to glow in the face And folks are grace and grotesque close to good taste And flow both and food waste And chose not to look both ways When walkin down the street where homeless people stayin at And you aint got change and you need to change your act And you’d like to change lanes but they die to change your habitat So before [bad word] about addresses you been payin at Some are livin Murphy’s lawn, you can bet they be obeyin that An empty man sittin in an empty park after dark Empty can, empty hands, empty head, empty heart (x4) [bad word] The city sleeps, and no consciousness thrives While the city sleeps, my thoughts are alive Underneath the city streets, we wait to colonize So fall in line (fall in line), fall in line (x3)
