Burnin' Down the City

Oh, yeah! Uh!

He'll burn it down, that's what he'll do
The man is mad, he lost his head.
He'll paint this whole town red, oh yeah.
Let's get it right.
Rock rockin ball break art for art sake, oh, yeah.

Workin hard to stay alive
Can't slow down, can't stop
Stay on the move to keep on top, oh, yeah.

Burnin' down the city.
Yeah, let's get it right.
Burnin' down the city.
Yea, let's strike tonight.
Every night he rocks this place,
He balls the best, but never shows his face, oh, no.
Balls walls, burns a truck,
Balls a trian, don't give a fuck, no, no.

Rock rockin ball break art for art sake, oh, yeah. Get it.

Very cool song. I remember when this was big. I seen a tv show about it and they were showing some amazing art but, the artist or artists wouldn't come forward for fear of being busted for it. I seen some amazing work on railway box cars. I live in the midwest so it was really cool to see some of the work roll through on the railroad. Even seen a few on semi-trailers too. Listening to this song now brings back the images I seen on tv and on the boxcars and trailers.
