No sun will shine in my day today; (no sun will shine)
|
The high yellow moon won't come out to play:
|
(that high yellow moon won't come out to play)
|
I said (darkness) darkness has covered my light,
|
(and the stage) And the stage my day into night, yeah.
|
Where is the love to be found? (oo-ooh-ooh)
|
Won't someone tell me?
|
'Cause my (sweet life) life must be somewhere to be found -
|
(must be somewhere for me)
|
Instead of concrete jungle (la la-la!),
|
Where the living is harder (la-la!).
|
|
Concrete jungle (la la-la!):
|
Man you got to do your (la la-la!) best. Wo-ooh, yeah.
|
No chains around my feet,
|
But I'm not free, oh-ooh!
|
I know I am bound here in captivity;
|
G'yeah, now - (never, never) I've never known happiness;
|
(never, never) I've never known what sweet caress is -
|
Still, I'll be always laughing like a clown;
|
Won't someone help me? 'Cause I (sweet life) -
|
I've got to pick myself from off the ground
|
(must be somewhere for me), he-yeah! -
|
In this a concrete jungle (la la-la!):
|
I said, what do you cry for me (la-la!) now, o-oh!
|
Concrete jungle (la la-la!), ah, won't you let me be (la la-la!), now.
|
Hey! Oh, now!

I said that life (sweet life) - it must be somewhere to be found
|
(must be somewhere for me)
|
Oh, instead: concrete jungle (la-la!) - collusion (la-la!) -
|
confusion (confusion). Eh!
|
|
Concrete jungle (la-la!): baby, you've got it in.
|
Concrete jungle (la la-la!), now. Eh!
|
Concrete jungle (la la-la!).
|
|
What do you stand(?) for me (la-la!), now? [fadeout]
