Out in the heat little child On the streets runnin' wild Barely ten, got a gun So now he thinks that he's a man Yes he does
Teenage girl out to steal 'cos her baby is in need of a meal Tryin' to cope as best she can In the high sunshine, low on hope
Well, there it is summer in the city Tryin' to make sense of a world gone crazy
Chorus: (du du du du du du) One hundred and risin' (du du du du du du) So the tale is told (du du du du du du) One hundred and risin' (du du du du du du)
Old man sitting in the shade Won't take part in the charade He may be old, but he ain't a foo L he has seen how dreams are bought and sold
On every corner, a steady stream To buy a thrill, a piper's dream While the heat takes it's toll It's just another day on a city street
You got to do the best you can to get by In the high sunshine
Chorus x 3
Summer madness will unfold
Tryin' to make sense of a world gone crazy Repeat (fade)
