Asphalt Jungle

Just sixteen
Hungry and lean
Out on the streets alone
Nobody there at all
To catch you when you fall
No place to call your own

A prince of night
Neon lights
In jeans and worn-out shoes
No nine to five
To keep you alive
It's the twentieth century blues

Well, headhunters everywhere
Brother, you better beware
Livin' in the asphalt jungle
Trouble wherever you turn
Try not to get yourself burned
Deep in the asphalt jungle
Jungle
Asphalt jungle

They're everywhere out on the street
Looking for fresh meat
Baby, you're just their kind
They'll eat you up alive
Living that shuck and jive
Feeds upon your mind

A sound of screams in the night
Someone just lost a fight
Down on the boulevard
Another victim falls
Between concrete walls
They go down mighty hard

Well, headhunters everywhere
Brother, you better beware
Livin' in the asphalt jungle
Trouble wherever you turn
Try not to get yourself burned
Deep in the asphalt jungle
Jungle
Asphalt jungle

Asphalt jungle
Asphalt jungle
Asphalt jungle...
