Crime & Decay Weep (Streets Fallin’ Down)

V5.5

Oh Chicago, my city of lost and found, Bears leavin’ you now, crossin’ state line ground. We stood by you through the violence and the pain, But the decay done won, washed it down the drain. Machine-style hellhole, vote-riggin’ every night, Bitch-ass politics turnin’ wrong to right. Hammond’s waitin’ with that clean financial light, Rubes got the wherewithal, doin’ what is right. While our streets keep bleedin’ in the dead of night, ’Cause the crime rate’s ragin’ through the city lights… The crime rate’s ragin’ through the city lights… The crime rate’s ragin’ through the city lights… Urban decay claimin’ everything in sight. Pension black hole, excuses by the ton, Economy collapsin’, the damage done. You gave us your heart, we gave you our mess, Now you chase the future, leavin’ us to confess.
