On the north side of town where the cold winds always blown,
Peoples faces are hard you see no one that you know,
And on the south side of town the bad boys are carrying guns,
There all the screaming, the swearing and they even got the cops on the run

This city is full of lonely hearts,
And all the guters are filled with broken parts,
We gotta get away and make a brand new start,
We gotta get away before it falls apart,
You and me,
You and me,
We can still make it but we gotta leave

On the west side of town they say the streets are lined with gold,
But all the peoples talls have turned back into plastic dolls,
On the east side of town you can here someones baby cry,
And when taht kid turns up he's going to turn into a mean old guy

This city is full of lonely hearts,
And all the guters are filled with broken parts,
We gotta get away and make a brand new start,
We gotta get away before it falls apart,
You and me,
You and me,
We can still make it but we gotta leave

This city is full of lonely hearts,
And all the guters are filled with broken parts,
We gotta get away and make a brand new start,
We gotta get away before it falls apart

This city is full of lonely hearts,
And all the guters are filled with broken parts,
We gotta get away and make a brand new start,
We gotta get away before it falls apart,
You and me,
You and me,
We can still make it but we gotta leave
