Nows the time your visions and your shreds   Turned out to be the cheap imported threads   The flag reeled out in a cotton kite   Flying miles above the wheatland in a single stripe   The revolution came the Revolution went   The chemical rain left the message on the tent   Wanted: one man to lead the crusade   Payment: a bullet on a big parade       Down in Gangsterville   Where any sane people already crawled under the house    Yeah Gangsterville - the television is always thinking about    Real people - especially when its hungry       Final decisions are made by the club    And inplemented by the shadow of a glove    And sitting in a coffee house reading words    We got popcorn salesmen for protection from the world    Went through extensive preparations    I learned all about the other nations    When freedom was defined as a word in a book    I learned if you're plugged into something then baby you're hooked       Into Gangsterville    I searched for a rose or some sweet juice of water    Gangsterville - people are giving    A black lady sobbed on a step - God bless the little born       On the other hand sitting next to the evil crew    They just got down from floor eighty - two    Been selling Indian reservations    Coming in looking for some jazz and a little libations    I like the same kind of beer    I gotta get right out of here    I'm going to New Orleans - gonna buy me a prayer    Gonna call somebody form a call box there       Hello this is Gangsterville    Bring your money to the shore    No automatic weapons on the jetty    Oh Gangsterville - electro shields on the phalanx    Club the Mayor in the streets - its chewable fecie       My kind, we are the worst kind    Got enough shrinks working on us    To defy paralysis Identify analysis    Just wanna hold my carburettor bible    Snapping to attention - eyes on the horizon    Keep your filter clean - wipe the oil from your dreams    Keep your hopes pinned on the Southern Cross    You got to believe in something or you feel a sense of loss       Down in Gangsterville    Pelicans dying strangling on a six can strap    Gangsterville shut off all power burn out all gasoline    Stop writting things on screens
