Love And Rockets - Jungle Law Lyrics
Deep down in the city 'neath the concrete treesSome signifying hack is scratching backs for fleasPutting on their bad mouths for poor little meSpreading ugly lies like it's some horrible diseaseHe said that I said what I never did saidBut I said that it's rare that it's over your headAsk me a question, then print a lieI cancelled all appointments having vowed that he will dieSo I went to find the source of this malitious dirtHaving reread the words and wiped the blood from my shirtWhen I found him he was sitting high up in a treeWith one bloody finger on a typewriter keySky is gray and the grass unseenAnd you're the dumbest **** this city's ever seenHe was laughing, shaking, high up in a treeBut then he lost his balance and he fell down on his kneesSo I leapt on that mother my anger to appeaseWhen I grabbed him by the throat, he said "Oh spare me please"Sure as gullible as my name I let him go back to the treesAnd straight away the poisons flowing freely from the keysThe sky is grey and the grass unseenAnd he's still the dumbest **** this concrete jungle's ever seenThat mother he was laughing, bathing in the heatBut then he slipped again and landed in the streetDeep down in the city 'neath the concrete treesNobody's seen that mother high in the fleasBut there's a new one in the obituariesAnd it shows four stars where the name oughta be
