Lyrics:
I live down in Shantytown
Where chicken's twenty cents a pound
And if you live on such solid ground
Whatcha doin' down in Shantytown?
Whatcha
SHANTYTOWN

(I live down in Shantytown where
a different road instead
It's safe to say that I can't complain when I remembered what I'd said
It brought me down
She wore the thorn of crowns in a shantytown
to beat
We got rhythm strong
Burnin' in our thighs
Celebrate all night long
'Cause we were alive
Oh, a rich man come
Shantytowns and slums
Is where
for free
Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar
But the waitress always serves a secret smile
She's waiting out in Shantytown
She's gonna pull
Golden Streets of this shantytown
A cold world run by crooked crowns
The maniacs and the panic attacks
The police and a picture piece
When fairytales are
for free
Me
I'm just another face at Zanzibar
But the waitress always serves a secret smile
She's waiting out in Shantytown
She's gonna pull
free
Me, I'm just another face at Zanzibar
But the waitress always serves a secret smile
She's waiting out in Shantytown
She's gonna pull the curtains
don't give a fuck (yeah)
Woo we started from the shantytown (shantytown)
痛みに利子付けて bounce back
Ay ネオン街を見下ろし笑う
摩天楼に touch down
Ha ha, yeah 要らない boast
It's a song written about a man in a shantytown outside of Johannesburg
A man who's sick of looking down the barrel of white South Africa
A man who is
back to the dust where you started
Jenny cut her teeth in a midwest shack
as a shantytown girl on the wrong end of the tracks
her mama taught her
looks
from the corridors of power
to the crowded streets of the shantytown
from the shoppin' malls to the fields of clover
from the dance halls
detective, I'll play bloodhound, sniffin' up clues with my nose in the mud
Down here in my shantytown, leave you alone, for the rest of my life
By the time I
It was a shantytown, honky tonk kind of discotech just south of alpha region
There was a cyborg, cyclops sitting at the bar and he seemed to take
Have you ever seen someone down on their knees
Have you ever heard someone begging you please
Have you ever been out in Shantytown
The wild will wither,
Sitting down in the shantytown,
Sitting down in the backseat
I guess I’ll live
As long as I can still get rid of you.
Breaking down all my thoughts
trash
Burn your cul-de-sac down
Suburbias into shantytowns
Metropolis or bust
Salt of the sticks with lustful
Eyes on the lights on the horizon
Burn
Innercity
Brazil exports to the rest of the world
A beautiful image, carnival and hot sun
Beautiful women, sexual tourism
While at shantytown
detective, I'll play bloodhound,
sniffin' up clues with my nose in the mud
Down here in my shantytown, leave you alone, for the rest of my life
By the time I
can't be good
For my 3rd world shantytown, one-bedroom Gomorrah,
rotted drywall, toxic mold, chickenwire ceilings,
glass in the mattress, cockroach pets,
I live in a shanty in the shantytown.
We have no money so we had to sleep on the ground.
I played the music. My father he dig a ditch.
My mother she
the Dalai Lama's words
I want to sting you in your scanties
And pong ping you through your panties in shantytown
As we goin' down to the cabaret in old
And now all the old familiar bars
The circles and the lies
And you there in your shantytown
Still dancing clear on slipping ground
The perfect sight,
On the way to shantytown man
We good with what we have
Even if its not enough
We try to ignore the facts
Cuz they just be rough
Some are miserable
Pathetic
